Jim Thorpe Independent Film Festival

The 7th Annual Jim Thorpe Independent Film Festival (JTIFF)

We are proud to announce the 7th Annual Jim Thorpe Independent Film Festival (JTIFF) that will run April 18th through the 21st, 2024 as a LIVE, IN-PERSON-ONLY event at the beautiful Mauch Chunk Opera House in historic Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania.
 
The Jim Thorpe Independent Film Festival channels the rebellious spirit of the Molly Maguires, welcoming the boldest, most defiant filmmakers to present their work, shatter convention and incite spirited debate.  Our credo is “eyes and minds wide open” and we mean it.  JTIFF cares deeply about diversity and strives to give the under-represented filmmaker a chance.  So we make a concerted effort to promote films by women, people of color, members of the LGBTQ community and student filmmakers.
