Discover our mission, our story and the passion that drives our celebration of independent cinema.
Our Mission
Caorle Independent Film Festival is a cultural event held every year in the beautiful town of Caorle, in the province of Venice, bringing the magic of independent cinema for a few days into a town without traditional movie theaters. In just a few years, it has become a regular meeting point for videomakers, authors, artists and industry professionals from all over the world.
Every year we carefully select 75 films among short films, documentaries and feature films from over 45 countries. Artistic quality and originality of stories are our guiding criteria.
