Outreach Initiatives

Young Filmmakers Program

GIFF invites student groups from high school film programs in Manitoba to showcase their films at a special screening during the festival! Student filmmakers get the chance to speak about their films during a Q&A after the screening. Participants have the opportunity to connect with other filmmakers, receive passes to experience the whole festival, and have access to our festival shuttle.

Our Bursary Program aims to reduce barriers for underserved communities. By connecting with local organizations, we offer free passes to individuals who are interested in attending the festival but may not have the means or access. Participants receive a free festival pass and free transportation through our shuttle service!
