In the Spotlight today is the 16th Annual Provincetown International Film Festival (PIFF), celebrating exciting achievements in international film while advancing the careers of stellar independent artists. Newly expanded to a full week of documentary, animated, and narrative feature films, short films, and student projects, PIFF offers something for everyone -- all while taking full advantage of its gorgeous Cape Cod surroundings. As America's oldest arts colony, Provincetown has long played host to luminaries from Eugene O'Neill to Quentin Tarantino, helping make it an ideal environment for unveiling the future of cinema.

Each year, more than 10,000 attendees descend upon PIFF with an eye for great talent and an itch to network. Filmmakers, producers, actors, students, and media outlets from across the United States regularly converge at this festival and exit Provincetown infused with big ideas and extraordinary new connections. It's all part of a welcoming, energizing experience designed to foster creativity in all who visit. Participating filmmakers even get complimentary bike rentals and bike locks to maximize their freedom to explore Providence in style.

PIFF prize-winning films are recognized at a lavish Closing Night Awards Ceremony, during which more than $5,000 USD in cash awards are distributed to films recognized by audience vote and jury selection. There's even a John Schlesinger Award for First-Time Filmmakers -- a cool $1,000 investment in a storyteller with a bright future.
