LIFF’S OBJECTIVE/GOAL

Our goal at LIFF is to create an exciting, professional and prestigious event that operates as a platform for U.S. and International filmmakers to showcase their films, network with fellow filmmakers and enjoy the casinos and attractions of Laughlin, Nevada. LIFF will offer the residents of Laughlin and Bullhead City, AZ the opportunity to experience cinema from a wide range of genres and subjects, including a "LIFF Picks" showcase screening non-competitive films selected by the Festival Committee. Films will be screened in state-of-the-art movie theaters in the heart of Laughlin over four days, in conjunction with social networking events and filmmaker workshops & panels. The festival will be kicked off with an opening night reception GALA and will come to an end with a closing night Awards Ceremony and after party.

The Laughlin International Film Festival supports the local Boys and Girls Club of the Colorado River and a portion of LIFF proceeds will be donated to their non-profit organization. To further encourage young future filmmakers, LIFF has worked with the local City of Bullhead and the Boys and Girls Club to support their 2^nd annual Tri-Sate Film Festival held in February 2012, and has sponsored the submission of their winning films into the LIFF Youth Film category.

LIFF is working toward becoming a non-profit organization and aims to achieve this goal within the first few years.
