The Plymouth Independent Film Festival (PIFF) had
its origins in 2004 when a group of artists and film supporters, recognizing
that Plymouth would be a perfect location for a film festival, came together and
built the foundation for what turned out to be a very successful 2005 inaugural
year.
With a full spectrum of events, the Festival caters to all manner of film
enthusiasts. PIFF's 2005 debut brought more than 4,000 Festival attendees, and
local business reported increases in revenue as high as 35 percent. In 2006, 110
films were shown including several outdoor free screenings which drew thousands
to Plymouth's historic waterfront. In addition, the Festival hosted a variety of
filmmaking workshops, panel discussions, awards ceremonies, and the chance to
meet and learn from legendary filmmakers.
Now entering its third season, PIFF continues to have a growing and positive
impact on the cultural and economic life of the South Shore, bringing the power
of independent film to this historic seaside community. Fans and followers from
nearby, across the country, and around the world have discovered PIFF and the
engaging and entertaining experience that independent films can deliver. |
