Cinéfest is an annual film festival in Greater Sudbury, Ontario. It is the fourth largest film festival in Canada.
First held in 1989, Cinéfest quickly became a popular destination for Canadian filmmakers. Unlike the larger film festivals in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver, Cinéfest offered filmmakers a chance to gain exposure among more typical film audiences in a city with very few venues for screening independent and non-mainstream films. Cinéfest presents an annual programme of over 100 films for both English and French language audiences.
Cinéfest also operates a film circuit which brings non-mainstream films to smaller Northern Ontario communities, and acts as a liaison office for local film industry development.
