The Tacoma Film Festival celebrates current independent film from around the globe. The primary focus of the festival is on art house, foreign language, independent, documentary and numerous short films. We especially encourage filmmakers from the Pacific Northwest area to submit to our festival - and attend the events, if possible! This is our time to celebrate you, the filmmaker, and the invaluable artistic talents that you provide to the film community.
