Welcome to ZIONS INDIE FILM FEST (ZIFF), a vibrant gathering place where storytellers and story-lovers come together to celebrate the power of independent cinema. Founded in 2001 and reimagined in 2022, ZIFF now stands as one of the premier showcases for bold, authentic filmmaking. From February 23–28, 2026, Utah’s majestic Wasatch Mountains become a shared stage where creativity thrives, conversations spark, and a global community unites through film.
At ZIFF, you’re not just attending a festival—you’re joining a movement built on connection, artistry, and shared passion. For 25 years, we’ve brought together filmmakers, industry leaders, distributors, students, critics, and audiences who believe in the future of independent storytelling. Whether you’re here to watch, learn, create, or connect, you’re part of a community that champions new voices, celebrates courageous work, and values the magic that happens when people gather around stories that matter. Welcome to the experience—we’re honored to have you with us.
