ABOUT BFF
BRIDGEPORT FILM FEST
With City Lights / Bridgeport Art Trail as our fiduciary partner, Bridgeport Film Fest is making “philanthropy through film” a priority in Bridgeport, CT.
Our nonprofit is dedicated to the discovery, championing and development of independent filmmakers and audiences in our community.
Through various programming our festival showcases, guides and inspire independent film and theatre artists from the Greater Bridgeport community and beyond. Local audiences are enriched by the films, workshops, panels discussions and other forms of artistic expression curated by the festival team and ensures the promotion of Downtown Bridgeport to continue to thrive as a cultural artistic center.
MISSION STATEMENT
The vision for the Bridgeport Film Fest is to establish Bridgeport as a central diverse hub for filmmakers and other artists to showcase their talents. This supports our long-term goal of enhancing cultural and economic growth to the City of Bridgeport as well as fostering new generations of Artists.
OUR VISION
This event brings business to the city through renting the principal and secondary screening venues and workshop locations, out of town guests visiting local businesses for the weekend, catering of local restaurants, printing services and of course giving graduating Bridgeport high school students a scholarship for higher education.
