Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival (Pimedate Ööde Filmifestival in Estonian, BNFF for short) is an annual film festival held since 1997 in Tallinn, the capital city of Estonia. BNFF is the only festival in the Nordic and Baltic region with a FIAPF (International Federation of Film Producers Association) accreditation for holding an international competition programme in the Nordic and Baltic region with 14 other major festivals, such as Berlin, Cannes, Venice, Karlovy Vary, Warsaw and San Sebastian. With over 250 feature films screened each year and over 77500 attendances (2014), BNFF is one of the biggest film festivals of Northeastern Europe and cultural events in Estonia in the winter season. The Festival runs three competitive programs - International Competition, The Tridens First Film Competition and The Tridens Estonian Feature competition. The top prize of the festival is the Golden Wolf, given to the director and producer of the best film of the International Competition programme. Also, the festival hosts several non-competitive programmes, including the Screen International Critics' Choice, as well as several retrospectives, a panorama of the best films of the year, and other special programmes. Concurrently with the festival takes place Industry@Tallinn, the annual summit of film industry events of Black Nights Film Festival, Baltic Event co-production market, and in 2015 the European Film Forum Tallinn, organised in partnership with European Commission. Industry @ Tallinn comprises the international Sales and Distributors Meeting Point, European Genre Forum - a creative camp for genre professionals for project and skills development - and two works in progress panels: the presentations of regional upcoming films from Baltic, Finnish and old CIS countries and international screenings ranging from Asia to Latin America. The unique umbrella structure includes 3 sub-festivals taking part concurrently with the main programme: Children’s and Youth Film Festival Just Film, Animation Film Festival Animated Dreams, International Short Film Festival Sleepwalkers . In addition BNFF organises two smaller film festivals: Haapsalu Horror and Fantasy Film Festival and Tartu Love Film Festival tARTuFF. ==History== When it began in 1997, BNFF was principally a showcase for Nordic film, but as the festival has grown it has dramatically expanded its overview. In 2010 the festival held the European Film Awards ceremony in Tallinn. Today BNFF is one of the largest film events in Northern Europe. During its 18th edition in 2015 the festival screened more than 500 films (including 250+ feature-length films), bringing over 835 screenings to an audience of over 77,500 people as well as over 649 accredited guests and journalists from 50 different countries. BNFF was recognised by FIAPF in 2011 and upgraded in 2014 as a festival entitled to run an international competitive feature film programme, a privilege seen by only 14 other festivals in the world. Notable filmmakers, actors and industry professionals that have visited BNFF include Aki Kaurismäki, Jos Stelling, Jan Troell, Catherine Breillat, Roy Andersson, Fridrik Thor Fridriksson, Neil Jordan, Philip Glass, Lukas Moodysson, Michael Nyman, Jerzy Stuhr, Tom Schilling, Pen-ek Ratanaruang, Isaach de Bankole, Fiona Shaw, Sergei Loznitsa and Olga Kurylenko. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
