Live Screenings International Film Festival (LSIFF) is a film festival & screenplay contest dedicated to supporting independent filmmakers and scriptwriters by providing opportunities to showcase their work, receive valuable feedback, and build industry connections. Combining live screenings with online accessibility, LSIFF ensures that films and scripts reach a diverse, global audience.

📌 Festival Overview

The festival includes two key components:

1️⃣ The Festival, a major event held in Tbilisi, Georgia, with live screenings at prominent venues and online broadcasts on our Festival Channel.

2️⃣ Themed Film Gems, weekly thematic mini-festivals hosted online throughout the year.

🟢 The Festival

The Festival is the centerpiece of LSIFF, held in Tbilisi, Georgia, with live screenings at renowned venues and simultaneous online broadcasts on the Festival Channel. It provides a platform for participants to present their films and scripts to a wide audience, including distributors, buyers, and industry players.

Every selected film receives thoughtful audience reviews!
Our curated audience—including film professionals, producers, and dedicated fans—provides meaningful feedback for each film. These reviews will be available on your film’s dedicated page on our website, helping you understand your film’s impact and enhancing its marketing and distribution potential.

🟢 Mini-Festivals (Themed Film Gems)

Leading up to the Festival, LSIFF organizes Themed Film Gems, weekly mini-festivals on the Festival Channel. These events focus on specific themes (e.g., "Sci-Fi Shorts," "Documentary Highlights") and provide filmmakers with year-round opportunities for recognition and audience engagement.
