The 19th Annual
Florida Film Festival.
Welcome Home

Premieres of the best in cutting-edge current cinema; indulgent experiences in food and wine; a blissful mix of industry parties and special events; a star-packed attendee list — this is the 19th annual Florida Film Festival, which begins Friday, April 9 and continues for 10 days around Central Florida.

Produced by Enzian, the Florida Film Festival has become one of the most respected regional film events in the country, developing a reputation for its Southern hospitality amongst visiting artists, special guests, and the local community.

Renowned for radiating a welcoming attitude and warm casual openness for the past 18 years, the Festival embraces its tradition and raises a glass to Southern hospitality. The Florida Film Festival devotes its 19th edition to a celebration of the spirit, passion, and warmth of Home Sweet Home, weaving this notion throughout its 10 days of exceptional film programming, delicious parties, and delectable special events. As always the festival includes the Film, Food, and Wine Celebration – a sizzling outpouring of cuisine and fine wine, this year all with a Southern edge.

So join us. Celebrate break-through filmmaking. Rest, relax, rekindle old friendships, and strike up new ones. Home is where the Florida Film Festival is.
