Monadnock International Film Festival

Our mission is to celebrate the diversity of our world through independent films that educate, enrich, and engage audiences. Our vision is to offer a year-round cultural resource for the Monadnock Region through our annual film festival and community film screenings, including a free Monadnock Earth Day Film Festival and summer Movies Under the Stars. 

MONIFF celebrates its thirteenth year in 2025, contributing to the vibrant arts community of the Monadnock Region. We are an all-volunteer organization and are truly grateful to continue doing so. 

All donations and funds raised go to programming the numerous events MONIFF provides throughout the year, most of them free to the public. Your donation will help us continue this wonderful tradition of making meaningful connections through film, filmmakers, and changemakers sharing their stories locally, regionally, and globally.

Here are a few recent testimonials:

I couldn't be happier with the experience of showing my documentary, Everything to Entertain You: The Story of Video Headquarters, at MONIFF in 2023. It's an amazing, well-run festival in beautiful venues with incredibly affordable individual tickets and all-access passes. The communication from the festival was top-notch, and I can't thank Dee and everyone at MONIFF enough for making it such a fantastic experience. - Brantley Palmer, Filmmaker, Everything to Entertain You

MONIFF was a great experience for us! Warm and generous people, very well organized, and a fantastic turnout for the screening. - Eric Stange, Filmmaker, Pony Boys (NY Times Critics Pick)

We had a wonderful screening of our film Cult at MONIFF! Communication was top-notch and personal, and the films were all high quality. Thank you for including us and we definitely plan to submit again next year! - Rachel Thomas-Medwid, Unpacking
