The San Francisco Irish Film Festival, founded in 2003, showcases the best of contemporary Irish cinema, including features, documentaries, and short films, as well as Irish language productions. It aims to celebrate Irish storytelling and talent within the film industry, fostering a broader appreciation for Irish film. The festival typically presents an annual film festival in September and initiated a dedicated DocFest for documentary films in March 2017. Screenings often occur at the Delancey Street Theatre.
