The Muju Film Festival (MJFF) is an annual film festival established in 2013 and held in early summer, distinguishing itself from larger festivals by focusing on providing audiences with an escape into serene mountain valleys for cinematic experiences. The festival is known for its outdoor screenings, particularly within the forest on the slopes of Deokyusan Mountain, and features diverse programs including Korean feature film competitions, contemporary panorama showcases, and sections dedicated to specific actors or directors. It also includes "Talking Cinema" with discussions by film critics and experts, "Kids Stage" for family-friendly films, and "Cinema Play" which combines outdoor screenings with music performances.
