In the Spotlight today is the 28th Annual Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival (FLIFF), celebrated as one of the friendliest and most uplifting festivals on the circuit. Unfolding against the sun-drenched, relaxing backdrop of one of America's favorite vacation destinations, FLIFF is littered with beach lodging, networking opportunities, and stellar screenings for discerning film fans. For more than two decades, the festival has helped countless filmmakers secure funding and publicity from local producers and Hollywood professionals alike. Films that play in Fort Lauderdale will also play at satellite events in Pompano Beach, Sunrise, Delray Beach, Davie, and Hollywood.

FLIFF filmmakers will receive all-access passes to festival events, including the Whole Foods Festival Café, the Filmmaker Dinner, The Chairman's Cruise and Brunch, and more. Travel support is included on a case-by-case basis and includes full room and board on an overnight cruise, a private waterfront suite at the Pelican Bay Resort, and return airfare. Guests will bask in the lap of luxury while enjoying a remarkable roster of A-List talents that has included Michael Caine, Sir Ben Kingsley, Matt Damon, John Waters, and Martin Scorsese. Other big names, including Michael Moore, Christina Applegate, and Jeremy Renner all appeared early in their careers at FLIFF -- and Michael Moore has returned three times since.

FLIFF's compelling array of competitive categories includes Best Film, Best Documentary, Best Short, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Ensemble, Best College Animation, Best High School Video, and more. Multiple juried awards are up for the taking, and the entire festival is proud to foster a spirit of good will, creativity, and casual camaraderie. It's no wonder so many FLIFF guests return, again and again.
