The Amsterdam Film Festival celebrates films that capture both the artistry and progressive nature of world cinema today. Created to recognize and award films that have potential to move audiences and change perceptions, the Amsterdam Film Festival is devoted to filmmakers whose quest is self-expression and communication.
The Amsterdam Film Festival proudly supports the art of screenwriting by allowing new talent to be heard and discovered in our annual Screenplay Competition. Top screenplays in the competition are awarded based on the quality and originality of the work. The Amsterdam Film Festival seeks to discover and revere the finest and most original voices in screenwriting from around the globe.
