Soho London Independent Film Festival

Shining a light on stories that matter

Soho London Independent Film Festival (SohoLIFF) is a ‘short film’ festival based in the heart of Soho, in London’s West End.

We love films that could make a difference, that give a voice to those who have been marginalised. We simply love great films that are engaging, from the dark and gritty to the eccentric and flamboyant. We welcome all genres and have a particular interest in films with a social and environmental message, films that matter.

SohoLIFF Thurs 25th – Sun 28th of January 2024
75 Dean Street, Soho, London W1D 3SQ

SohoLIFF features live screenings, panel discussions and workshops over four consecutive days, culminating in a gala-night award ceremony to celebrate all the festival’s films! Our Audience Choice Award, voted for by the public, brings with it an amazing opportunity for the winner to have their film poster displayed across Storm’s huge digital billboards in prominent London locations, all thanks to our wonderful Soho neighbours, Clear Channel.

Throughout the year we host our ‘Soho Spotlights’ which provide advice and insights for filmmakers – from industry professionals, covering subject matters ranging from finance to distribution. We also host panels and masterclasses featuring industry experts, which are free to our filmmakers. Filmmakers have an opportunity to be interviewed for our Soho Spotlights in the run-up to our festival and awards night as well.

Run by a group of passionate professionals and enthusiastic newcomers, this is one not to be missed.
