About
ABOUT US
Stockholm is truly the capital and heart of Scandinavia. There are so many film festivals happening around the year, but still, new festivals are needed.
The Stockholm City Film Festival is a film festival run by a group of indie filmmakers who studied filmmaking in Stockholm. The aim is to promote and encourage short, feature, and documentary films from across the world by giving them the opportunity to showcase such films in the Swedish capital.
The other aim of the festival is to raise awareness and promote the various aspects of international cinema in all its forms, and for this reason, we will organize seminars, master’s classes, and special lectures about the film world.
