CJFF is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing justice-focused films from around the world to Calgary. Every screening we host is free to attend, made possible by our dedicated supporters and funders.

With a rigorous selection process, we select films by hundreds of filmmakers from around the world, across Canada, and in Alberta . Each screening is accompanied by a lively discussion featuring filmmakers or topic experts, fostering engaging dialogue.

During the festival, we also host the Peace Market, a pop-up showcase of local non-profit organizations, NGOs, and local vendors with food, art, crafts, and information.

Bringing Global Issues Into Focus

Our Vision
To influence positive behavioural change by sharing justice focused films that inspire and engage neighbours to become active and caring citizens.

Our Mission
Providing a platform through film and visual arts that creates community awareness and discussion about justice issues that matter.
