The Resistance International Film Festival (RIFF) is regarded as one of the most prestigious international film festivals in Iran, the official website of the event wrote.

The goal of the Festival is to create an atmosphere of dialogue, understanding of current human sufferings, and to share experiences and new ideas. The three-fold mission is to:

2. Foster the human spirit of brotherhood, peace, and resisting oppression.

3. Use the language of film to fight terrorism and violence.

Filmmakers around the world are welcome to submit documentaries, short and feature, and animated films relevant to the festival topics.

The RIFF is established to explain the “Islamic Revolution Discourse”, as well as the theoretical and conceptual framework of the world's most prestigious religious and ideological revolution.

The 15th edition of the event is slated for December 2018.
