Boulder, Colorado, the Smartest City in America (Forbes Magazine 2008), produces sold-out shows and huge film-savvy audiences for its four-day Boulder International Film Festival. Thousands of enthusiastic, highly-educated festival-goers have helped make BIFF one of the most influential young film festivals in the U.S., with an extraordinary number of new films that have gone from early screenings at BIFF to significant box-office success and multiple Oscar nominations.

Chris Gore, author of The Ultimate Film Festival Survival Guide and the founder of Film Threat, says "The staff's dedication to championing true Indies and amazing hospitality, along with a classic theater make this a festival that should be on the top of every filmmaker's list." BIFF is Feb 11-14, 2010.

BIFF has been proud to host and celebrate some of independent film’s most talented players, including actor/comedian Chevy Chase, legendary Indie filmmakers Michael and Mark Polish “The Polish Brothers” (Twin Falls Idaho, Northfork, The Astronaut Farmer), Golden-Globe nominated actress Maria Bello (A History of Violence, The Cooler, Thank You for Smoking), director Jon Poll (The 40-Year Old Virgin, Austin Powers, Charlie Bartlett) and renowned Hollywood screenwriter John August (Big Fish, Go, The Nines) along with many other independent filmmakers, directors, producers and stars including Academy-Award nominee Eric Roberts, and Patrick Warburton [Seinfeld]).
