International Auto Film Festa

Chuo-ku, Japan


>> Our Vision

Sharing moments that move people through films with cars.

International Auto Film Festa (IAFF) is a film festival that connects people, cultures, and emotions through the presence of automobiles.


>> What We Believe

Cars are more than speed or technology.
They are part of our lives—traveling with us, shaping memories, and sharing landscapes.

Films that capture these moments have the power to move hearts beyond borders.


>> An Open Film Festival

IAFF is open to everyone.
Brands, budgets, countries, and generations do not matter.

Anyone who loves cars can express their passion through film and share it with the world.


>> Our Starting Point

IAFF began with a desire to share stories, feelings, and ideas—and continues to grow from there.

Even unknown creators can make films that truly touch people.
We exist to discover and celebrate that kind of honest creativity.


>> Growing Together

IAFF grows with its filmmakers, jurors, audiences, and partners.
It is not for the benefit of a few, but a place to be enjoyed by many.

Together, we continue exploring new stories and new perspectives.
