The Silk Road International Film Festival (SRIFF) is an independent, volunteer-led film festival based in Dublin, Ireland. Each year we bring international cinema from countries along the historic Silk Road and beyond to Irish audiences, alongside new work from Irish filmmakers.

Our programme includes feature films, documentaries and shorts, with in-person screenings in Dublin, filmmaker Q&As and industry masterclasses. Selected films also stream online on Silk Road ON DEMAND, and the Silk Road Film Club brings monthly screenings and filmmaker conversations to members all year round.

Our mission is to build bridges between cultures through film, and to give audiences in Ireland access to stories they would not otherwise see.
