About Tallahassee Film Festival

The Tallahassee Film Festival, Inc. is an all-volunteer, tax exempt non-profit organization under Federal Tax Code 501(c)3. It was created in 2008 under the Knight Creative Communities initiative. Our Mission Through our annual festival and year-round slate of cultural events, we seek to present a world-class celebration of the arts and cinema that enriches the cultural, economic, and social vitality of the region. Our Story The Tallahassee Film Festival held its inaugural event in May 2008. An impressive 65 film screenings, educational seminars, competitions for emerging filmmakers and an engaged community made the first year a huge success. A highlight was the award-winning Rickards High School Marching Band playing pieces from the Star Wars score to acknowledge Richard Portman with a Lifetime Achievement Award. As the years progressed, the Tallahassee Film Festival has attracted even greater films, filmmakers, and raised the bar on the excellence of the presenters and screenings. We’ve showcased films by Oscar winning directors - before they were Oscar winners! We’ve premiered films in this region from all over the world and from many of the most prestigious film festivals.
