Finnish Film Affair is the industry event of Helsinki International Film Festival – Love & Anarchy and an international showcase of Finnish and Nordic films. Organised yearly since 2012, Finland’s most prominent industry event takes place in a welcoming and laid-back but highly efficient and professional setting.

Attending sales agents, distributors, festival programmers, TV buyers, and representatives of the press get an opportunity to find out more about upcoming Finnish features and documentaries, as well as a chance to network. Approximately 500 film industry professionals from around the world attend yearly.

Finnish Film Affair is also the home of Nordic Flair, a training programme that provides valuable career development opportunities for Nordic filmmaking talent. The training scheme changes yearly to focus on different pools of talent, from actors to sales agents to leaders of the industry.

The 13th Finnish Film Affair will take place in Helsinki in September 2024.
