Group of people using a film projector in a dark room with a large circle and starry pattern projected on the wall.

We're rolling out a full slate of programming that includes media artist spotlights, an industry panel, SOUND+VISION events, Niagara-made feature films, the Tidal Surges showcases of experimental and documentary shorts, and some hands-on filmmaking workshops. We're also bringing back some fest favourites including Saturday Morning Cartoons (breakfast included!), the Drop-in Media Lab, and the ever-legendary MNFF CHERRYOKE. The festival closes Sunday with a celebration of 16mm films in the Microcinema and Harry Smith’s visionary Mahagonny.

The Mighty Niagara Film Festival returns this November.
