Japan World Film Festival

Behind every film is a filmmaker, a writer, a community, a place, and a life experience that deserves to be seen.

JWFF exists to champion independent storytellers and bring their voices to new audiences.

We are interested in discovering filmmakers, supporting artists,  and building meaningful connections between creators and audiences.

JWFF brings together filmmakers from around the world and connects them with local communities, artists, students, and fellow artists.

We believe cinema should not live only in theaters, festivals,  It should live among people.

Through screenings, conversations, workshops, community filmmaking projects, we aim to create a place where stories continue beyond the closing credits.

On this Channel:
- Official selection Film trailers
- Interviews
- BTS Kenpoku Films community productions
- Workshops in progress

At JWFF, we celebrate not only films, but the artists who create them.

Because great cinema begins with great storytellers.
