CIFFR is regrettably cancelled, but you can still enjoy some festival spirit by catching up on films by previous editions’ winners.
Due to the circumstances of COVID-19, we had to cancel the 9th edition of Curaçao IFFR (CIFFR), scheduled for 21 to 26 April 2020, in Willemstad. To lighten this burden, we’ve made six previous winners of the Yellow Robin Award available to watch online in Curaçao, with 1 film of your choice to be viewed for FREE until April 30, 2020.
Ever since its launch in 2013 at the second edition of CIFFR, the Yellow Robin Award Competition has served as the festival’s major platform for upcoming filmmaking talent from the region. Each year, an international jury decides which filmmaker receives the $10,000 prize. On top of that, the winning film goes on to screen at the next editions of both IFFR and Mexico’s Morelia International Film Festival.
IFFR Unleashed now presents six recent winning films, by filmmakers hailing from Panama, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Mexico and the Dominican Republic. Their local visions, rooted in places where cultures merge and collide, have since met with eyes from all over the world.
Curaçao audiences can watch one of the six films per account for free.
