Golden Gate Armenian Film Festival
About
Annual film festival strengthening ties between Armenian film directors and the Armenian diaspora in the United States.
The Golden Gate Armenian Film Festival was founded to strengthen the connection between Armenian film directors and the Armenian diaspora in the United States. The festival aims to bring a better understanding of the realities of Armenia to other Armenians and the general public living in the United States.
The Third Golden Gate Armenian Film Festival takes place November 20-22, 2026, at the Vogue Theatre in San Francisco. This year's festival features highly acclaimed movies screened at the Venice, Locarno, and Golden Apricot International Film Festivals. Produced in Armenia, France, Germany, Belgium, and Canada, the lineup includes documentaries, dramas, short films, and animated films that bring to the screen topics from the lives of Armenians across the globe.
The festival jury members will reward the best film in each category with handcrafted awards by famous Armenian-Lebanese artist Narine Poladian. Featured films include a collection of short films, 'Poqr Mher' (the first Armenian feature-length animated film created with artificial intelligence), 'Scattered Seeds of the Pomegranate,' and 'The Land of Arto.'
