Cinéfest Sudbury International Film Festival, also known as Cinéfest is an annual film festival in Sudbury, Ontario. It is the fourth largest film festival in Canada. First held in 1989, Cinéfest quickly became a popular destination for Canadian filmmakers. Unlike the larger film festivals in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver, Cinéfest offered filmmakers a chance to gain exposure among more typical film audiences in a city with no regular venues for screening independent and non-mainstream films. Cinéfest presents an annual programme of over 100 films for both English and French language audiences. Cinéfest also operates a film circuit which brings non-mainstream films to smaller Northern Ontario communities, and acts as a liaison office for local film industry development.
