Leeds International Film Festival is now welcoming submissions for its 33rd edition which will run from 6th to 21st November 2019. A qualifying film festival for both the Oscars® and BAFTAs, LIFF presents an extensive and diverse programme of discovery that celebrates the achievements of new and established talent from around the world.

You can enter your film to LIFF 2019 using either FilmFreeway or Withoutabox where you can find full information about our categories and criteria. You only need to enter your film into one category: if your film is eligible for other categories it will still be considered by their programme selectors. The deadlines for submissions are: earlybird 1st April 2019, regular 1st July 2019, and final 9th August 2019.
