BIAFF Batumi Film Festival On December 13-17, we present the Biafi Film Week, where a collection of both full-length and short films will be screened.

This year, there will be no competition program and jury at BIAFF 2025. Given the current small budget, we have decided to hold it in a different format – we will have only film screenings and several sections will feature outstanding films from 20 countries participating in various international festivals (Cannes, Venice, Sundance, Berlinale, Toronto, Karlovy Vary, Locarno, etc.). Instead of a jury, film lovers will be able to evaluate the films and announce the Audience Award.

Next year, BIAFF will return to its traditional format and we are sure it will be a very interesting anniversary year. Until then, don't miss BIAFF 2025  Exclusive “Best of”  Movie collection.

The Biafi Film Festival will feature 15 full-length and 25 short films from more than 20 countries.

Movie screening location – CAVEA GRAND MALL Cinema (in Batumi Grand Mall).

Tickets – Tickets for film screenings will be sold at www.tkt.ge (from December 9)
