GI Film Festival San Diego

The Arts Program is proud to partner with GI Film Festival San Diego to showcase a selection of films from previous festivals. The GI Film Festival San Diego presents films and events for, by, and about the military and veterans. 

Since its inception in 2015, the GI Film Festival San Diego has presented more than 170 films from international, U.S., and San Diego County, and has attracted thousands of attendees from various backgrounds. To help bridge the military-civilian divide, each film selected tells a compelling and unique story. 

The event is organized by KPBS and partners with the Film Consortium San Diego to present the Local Film Showcase.
