Transilvania International Film Festival (TIFF) is presented by Romanian Film Promotion. Founded in 2002, Transilvania IFF is the first international feature film festival in Romania.

During these twelve years, Transilvania IFF has become a well-known brand in Romania, not only due to the outstanding films screened every year, but also for the effective organization, sparkling atmosphere and density of events, from seminars, workshops and panels to fabulous concerts and crazy all night long parties.

Transilvania IFF's 2007 edition, was the first to be presented simultaneously in Cluj and Sibiu, that year's European Capital of Culture.

The last editions of Transilvania IFF have not only been spectacular, but also showcased an extremely generous and diverse offer of films and sensational events. The 2013 edition presented almost 400 screenings, attracting over 62.000 spectators during the ten days of the festival.

Over these 12 editions, Transilvania IFF was honored to host important personalities of European and worldwide cinema offering Lifetime Achievement Awards to Julie Delpy, Michael Radford, Annie Girardot, Udo Kier, Vanessa Redgrave, Franco Nero, Nicolas Roeg, Catherine Deneuve, Claudia Cardinale and Wim Wenders, Jacqueline Bisset, Geraldine Chaplin or Jiri Menzel.
