The Yokohama Film Festival (ヨコハマ映画祭, Yokohama eigasai) is an annual awards ceremony held in Yokohama, Japan. Ten films are chosen as the best of the year and various awards are given to personnel. The first festival, held on February 3, 1980, was a small affair by fans and film critics.[1] In 1994, France announced plans to help sponsor the festival with grants from the National Cinema Center.[2]
