The 27th edition of the Tel Aviv International Student Film Festival (TISFF) has announced new dates and will take place from August 20 – 27, 2025. The festival was postponed from its original June dates due to the war.
Considered one of the top student and short film festivals worldwide, TISFF is a favorite of mine for its creativity, energy, and the diversity of its program. The festival will screen close to 100 short films from 20 countries, among them are: France, South Korea, Denmark, India, Taiwan, Mexico, Romania, and Japan. The festival also reflects the current situation in Israel, with special events and a focus on the role of art and filmmaking, with films that observe the new reality through the lens of the camera. The festival is an all-volunteer effort, produced and run by students of The Steve Tisch School of Film & Television at Tel Aviv University.
