It seeks to connect the Japanese film industry with the Asia-Pacific film market while providing a platform for film enthusiasts to meet online and offline. Additionally, the festival increases interest in Japanese cinema while creating new film markets.

The Japanese Film Festival (JFF) started in 1983 and is one of Singapore’s oldest country-based film festivals. It is a gateway for many into the wondrous world of Japanese cinema and culture.

JFF aims to showcase the best of Japanese contemporary and classic cinema. The festival is curated in hopes that film will raise awareness of and interest in Japanese culture in its many diverse manifestations. This year’s festival welcomes a diverse line-up that showcases uniquely charming, powerful, unsettling, and intimate stories of human relationships and lived experiences.
