The 23rd Annual Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival (October 16 - November 10, 2008) is the world's longest *Guiness World Recods), the oldest consecutively running Florida fest, Florida's top rated film fest (Florida Arts Council) and one of Broward's five Major Cultural Institutions.

In addition to our award winning programs of world and American independent film, FLIFF also provides free film seminars, free films for kids, free outdoor family movies, and a variety of gala events.
The 2008 FLIFF brings back an audience favorite venue The AMC Coral Ridge Theatre (October 24 - 30). The AMC was our first home,years before we created Cinema Paradiso. In addition to two non-stop screens, The AMC will also host our Festival Cafe, open to all filmmakers, press, corporate sponsors and Producer level and above members, The stunning Miniaci Theatre for the Performing Arts on the Nova Southeastern University campus in Davie will host our Gala Opening Night (Oct 17). But beyond a doubt, the Festival feels like home when we are at our year-round digs, Cinema Paradiso, complete with a full bar, The Paradiso Courtyard Patio, free parking, stadium seating in plush blue velvet seats, and the best sound & projection in South Florida.

On October 31st, the 4th Annual BOO-tacular will take place at Cinema Paradiso. From 6 – 8pm, kids can enjoy our Pumpkin Patch, Haunted House, Costume & Scream Contests, Halloween movies (easy on frights for the little ones) and treats. At 9pm things get scary for the older crowd!

There will be several free outdoor movies including Blockbusters at Pompano Fashion Square, Huizenga Plaza, and at Hollywood's ArtsPark.

The Official Entre Nous Opening Night party will take place at Signature Grand, just a five minute drive from The Miniaci. With celebrities in attendance, a live band, a fabulous silent auction and sumptuous buffet, this is one of the best known FLIFF events.

With year-round programming at Cinema Paradiso and throughout South Florida, FLIFF is a vacation from ordinary film.
