The Sarasota Film Festival is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that has been widely received as an artistic and cultural institution in Sarasota for 20 years strong. We rely on the support of generous donors, members, volunteers and business sponsors to bring our mission to fruition: to celebrate the art of filmmaking and the contribution of filmmakers by hosting an international film festival, and by developing year-round programs for the economic, educational, and cultural benefit of the greater Sarasota community.
