SELECTION PROCESS

The Badagry International Film Festival (BIFIF) is a celebration of films from around the world. It provides filmmakers with a platform to showcase their culture, creativity, and artistry on an international level. The festival aims to promote films that are of high quality and meet international standards.

The selection process for BIFIF is rigorous and requires filmmakers to meet certain criteria in order for their films to be considered. The jury carefully reviews each submission based on its technical merits, originality, storytelling, and relevance to the theme of the festival. In addition, the films must also meet certain rules and regulations set by the organizers in order for them to be eligible for selection.

The festival offers a variety of award categories that give recognition to those who have made significant contributions to cinema.
