The DaVinci International Film Festival (DIFF) is a premier boutique destination for the modern filmmaker, hosted at AMC Theatres at The Grove. The festival celebrates the Architecture of Story, awarding excellence in the Masterwork across four signature Disciplines with the prestigious Leo Award®.
Established in 2017, DIFF is a 5-STAR and TOP REVIEWED platform that validates the high-end craft of narrative, documentary, animation, and screenwriting. We honor those who treat cinema as a feat of both discipline and imagination at our exclusive, red-carpet events in Los Angeles and Cannes, France.
Beyond the screen, DIFF hosts panel events including FilmBC, FilmAsia, and Digital Hollywood. In 2024, the DaVinci Film Society launched the Junior Leo Awards®, fostering the Multidisciplinary Spirit in burgeoning creatives and providing a strong platform for the next generation of polymathic storytellers.
