Description:	Established in 1981, the Hawaii International Film Festival (HIFF) is dedicated to advance understanding and cultural exchange among the peoples of Asia, the Pacific and North America through the medium of film. From its beginning, the Festival's constant theme has been "When Strangers Meet." HIFF has become the premiere international film event in the Pacific and has won the praise of governments, filmmakers, scholars, educators, programmers and film industry leaders throughout the world. As the largest "East meets West" Festival in the United States, HIFF is the primary source for the discovery and exhibition of Asian and Pacific feature films, documentaries and videos in the nation. The Festival is an eagerly anticipated annual event for residents of Hawaii, as well as visitors to the state. HIFF started as a project of the East-West Center, an educational and research institution created by U.S. Congress and located on the University Hawai`i Manoa campus in Honolulu. The first HIFF screened seven films from six countries to an audience of 5,000. The year was 1981. Today, HIFF is a state-wide event and the only one of its kind in the U.S. with offices on Bishop Street in downtown Honolulu. It has more than one dozen screening sites on six Hawaiian Islands and draws an audience of 65,000 or more from around the state, the nation and throughout the world. HIFF also conducts seminars, workshops, special award presentations and receptions with top Asian, Pacific and North American filmmakers participating. Since its inception, more than 750,000 people from throughout the world have shared HIFF film screenings and insights.
