About the festival
The Eldoret Film Festival was established in 2018 by Cosmas Bii to give local filmmakers opportunities to work without moving to Nairobi. It organises an annual film awards ceremony and supports film production, distribution and exhibition in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu County, Kenya.
Eligible films are productions made in Kenya, with short films competing in a regular category and feature-length films in a special category. Selected films also tour through screenings in shopping centres across counties in Western Kenya. The festival's FilmFreeway profile reports about 1,900 submissions, 70 selected projects and 28 awards per edition.
