Newark IFF

15/07/2023

To the talented and hardworking filmmakers, actors and writers, our sponsors and friends of the festival, in light of the ongoing WGA strike and the recent SAG-AFTRA strike, the Newark International Film Festival fully acknowledges and stands in support of all writers and actors.

The NEWARKIFF was founded in and continues to be a platform for independent and emerging filmmakers and our mission statement is aligned with and committed to the art, and voices of the storytellers from around the world.

We stand in solidarity with SAG - AFTRA and the Writers Guild of America in their fight to achieve a fair and equitable contract. And we will support them as they have supported us all through their craft, talent and art over the years. WE STAND WITH YOU!
