Lights! Camera! Action! The Cleveland International Film Festival returns to the big screens starting this week at the historic Playhouse Square in Downtown Cleveland. Tickets for in-person screenings are $14 for CIFF members and $16 for non-members. Use the code SPONSOR46 for $1 off any in-person screening or streaming ticket purchase.

The fun begins March 31, following the March 30 Opening Night Gala. Live screenings continue through April 9, and end with Closing Night sponsored by Pierre’s Ice Cream Company!

The closing night film, LINOLEUM, is written and directed by Ohio-born Colin West. Viewing will include Pierre’s treats. All attending any of the films showing on Closing Night are invited to the Closing Night Ceremony in the Connor Palace!

Closing night may mark the end of the in-person festival, but the fun will continue with CIFF46 Steams, an eight-day (April 10-17) run that will feature a selection of films shown during the live screenings. Tickets for CIFF46 Streams screenings are $8 for CIFF members and $10 for non-members. Digital voucher 10-packs, which are redeemable for in-person screenings only, are $120 for CIFF members and $140 for non-members.

The CIFF46 Film Guide is available online and as a printable PDF at clevelandfilm.org.
