The San Francisco International Ocean Film Festival (SFIOFF), formerly the San Francisco Ocean Film Festival, is a film festival held in San Francisco, USA, that features films about marine life, the ocean, coastal cultures and conservation. The 2013 event took place from March 7–10, 2013, at the Theater 39 on Pier 39 and featured a multimedia presentation by Jean-Michel Cousteau at the opening gala. Celebrating its 10th edition in 2013, this is the first dedicated Ocean Film Festival in North America and the second in the world after the acclaimed Festival International du Film Maritime, exploration et l'environnement, in Toulon, France, founded in 1954. SFIOFF has become the premier venue for international marine filmmakers to screen their works to a growing North American audience and has inspired the creation of several other ocean film festivals in the US, including the Blue Ocean Film Festival. All films selected for the festival are eligible to compete for awards in Adventure, Coastal Culture, Environment, Conservation, Short Film and Wildlife categories. ==History== The San Francisco International Ocean Film Festival was founded in 2004 and is a volunteer-driven 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
