Established legitimate festival
The Monadnock International Film Festival (MONIFF) is an annual nonprofit event in Keene, New Hampshire that showcases high-quality independent cinema, including award-winning domestic and foreign documentaries, shorts, and narratives from local, regional, and international filmmakers. Notable for its Jonathan Daniels Award—which honors films fusing social or political awareness with artistic excellence to tell stories of hope and human triumph—the festival was named an "Up and Coming Film Fest" by New Hampshire Magazine and received a 2024 Ewing Arts Award. MONIFF serves as a significant community hub by blending in-person and virtual screenings to foster cultural engagement and economic vitality in the Monadnock Region.
