SIFF creates experiences bringing people together to discover extraordinary films from around the world with the Seattle International Film Festival, SIFF Cinema and SIFF Education. Recognized as one of the top film festivals in North America, SIFF is the largest, most highly attended festival in the United States reaching more than 155,000 annually. The 25-day festival is known for its wide-ranging and eclectic programming, presenting more than 400 features, short films and documentaries from more than 80 countries each year. The event began May 18 and lasts through June 11.
The film festival presents its second year of the China Stars Showcase series, presenting 12 feature films along with five short films from students of the Beijing Film Academy. With support from WASA North America Group and Hainan Airlines fostering cultural exchange and artistic vision, the China Stars Showcase features stories from thriller and family-friendly comedy to a discovery of an inter-dimensional portal.
