Mission
The Berlin Independent Film Festival is at the epicentre for low-budget filmmaking in Europe. While the Berlin Independent Film Festival is not connected with the Berlin Film Festival (Berlinale), BIFF runs at the same time, and just down the street from the European Film Market and draws on all the film industry power gathered in Berlin for those events.

About the festival
The BIFF team are preparing for another fantastic festival of independent filmmaking from February 8-18 at some of Berlin’s favorite independent cinemas. The Berlin Independent Film Festival continues to champion low-budget filmmaking by giving special attention to films by first- and second-time directors and films achieving amazing results with small budgets.
