Where faith inspires film - and film inspires the worLD

The Knoxville International Christian Film Festival was founded with a simple vision: to create a place where filmmakers, screenwriters, musicians, students, and storytellers could use their God-given gifts, encourage one another, and glorify God through creative excellence.

Since opening for submissions in 2024, KICFF has welcomed artists from 27 U.S. states and 14 countries, growing into an international community where faith, creativity, excellence, and lasting friendships flourish.

Here, you'll discover far more than awards and screenings. You'll find Christian creatives cheering one another on, meaningful conversations that continue long after the credits roll, opportunities to see your work celebrated, shared, and discovered by audiences around the world, and a team committed to serving every participant with what we proudly call our Spirit of Excellence & Service.

Whether you're preparing to submit your latest project, connect with fellow Christian creatives, or simply explore what God is doing through this growing ministry, we pray you'll feel encouraged, inspired, and right at home.

Experience God's Country... where dreams come alive, friendships begin, and stories of faith find their audience.
