The Video Art & Experimental Film Festival (VAEFF) is an annual event held in New York City, showcasing innovative, provocative, and exciting works of film and video art from around the world. The festival embraces a broad spectrum of boundary-pushing content, including animation, music video, fashion film, documentary, dance, and visual narrative, with films typically no longer than 20 minutes. Running for its 15th year, VAEFF takes place at the iconic Cinema Village and offers programs that explore themes such as beauty, sex, shame, and works that push social and psychological boundaries.
