IWFF 48 Virtual Festival

Catch the Virtual fest 4/26 – 5/2. The virtual catalog is varied in terms of regional blocking and date availability due to each film’s licensing terms. IWFF’s goal is to make each film in the catalog accessible globally for at least 24 hours.
2025 selections include films that are having their world premiere (Mighty Monkeys and The Last Mermaids of Korea), and US premiere (Fabulous Insects – Ants and Antarctica Unearthed) at IWFF. The festival will feature films from BBC and IMAX, as well as independent and student filmmakers from around the globe. There are 6 unique shorts blocks screening throughout the fest. There will be visiting filmmakers from South Korea, Germany, Canada, and the US, as well as local and regional alumni of the festival.
The International Wildlife Film Festival and the Roxy Theater gratefully acknowledges that we rest on the traditional lands of the Salish people where they make their home, speak the Salish language, and steward the land.
