The Salento International Film Festival (SIFF) is a celebration of films and filmmakers from around the World. It promotes international independent films in recognition of the fact that movies are the most powerful form of cultural communication and link between cultures and peoples.
Founded in 2004, by Luigi Campanile, the Salento International Film Festival emerged as a major cultural event and one of the top film festival in Southern Italy. Each year it introduces filmmakers worldwide to the Salento area. 7 days of world premieres, special events, seminars, feature films, short-films and documentaries.
The Italian Cultural Institute is a partner in this year event, and our special thanks go to the Director CARLO PRESENTI and his staff for their continous cooperation and support to SIFF LONDON events through the past year.
