43rd Hawai’i International Film Festival Presented by Halekulani Complete Lineup

HIFF is proud to announce the complete lineup of films for the 43rd Hawai’i International Film Festival (HIFF43) presented by Halekulani. The festival is centered around the theme of diving into creativity, cultures, experiences and new ways of thinking through the vehicle of cinema.

Boasting over 186 film selections (91 feature & 95 short films) from across the globe, the lineup is comprised of feature film favorites from major festivals throughout the year, several world and international premieres of new works, and special forums dedicated to spark discourse on Environmental films, Pasifika, Kānaka Maoli, and Indigenous experiences through the intersection of creative content and culture, reflecting Hawai‘i as a gathering place and a bridge for cultural exchange.

HIFF is also excited to launch HIFILM: HIFF’s “Industry Hub,” which is is an industry track of career development programs for participants to attend to learn from industry professionals—both locally and nationally—with the mission of industry opportunities in the State of Hawai‘i that are sustainable locally and provide opportunities for API and NHPI and Pasifika communities in the following spaces—independent film, branded content, unique film crew positions and film criticism and content creation.
