Leskovački internacionalni festival filmske režije - LIFFE pokrenut je 2008. godine u cilju promocije filmskih ostvarenja i autora iz zemlje i regiona. Tokom svoje petnaestogodišnje istorije, u organizaciji Leskovačkog kulturnog centra, razvio se u prestižnu manifestaciju koja daleko prevazilazi lokalne okvire i ima sve veću popularnost kod filmofila i filmskih stvaralaca.

Na festivalu je do sada prikazano oko 350 filmova pred više od 100.000 gledalaca. Uz to, LIFFE je imao veliki broj evropskih premijera u Srbiji, a na festival su dolazili kultni autori eks jugoslovenske kinematografije. Internacionalni festival filmske režije u Leskovcu osnovan je sa idejom kulturološkog umrežavanja regiona. Kinematografije ovog regiona, uz svoje specifičnosti, govore univerzalnim jezikom koji najbolje razumeju susedi sličnog mentaliteta i senzibiliteta. Pored kulturne raznolikosti koju ovaj festival nudi, on pruža i mogućnost susreta filmskih stvaralaca, što predstavlja osnov stvaranja kvalitetnijeg i raznovrsnijeg tržišta. Tokom šesnaest godina festival je ugostio preko 120 najpoznatijih reditelja različitih generacija, kao i veliki broj glumaca iz regiona.

Leskovac International Film Directing festival – LIFFE was founded in 2008 with the aim to promote films and authors from the country and the region. During its 15 years of history, organized by Leskovac Cultural Centre, it has developed into a prestigious manifestation which widely surpasses local frames and has been gaining increasing popularity with filmophiles and film creators.

In addition, LIFFE had a large number of European premieres in Serbia, and cult authors of ex-Yugoslav cinematography came to the festival. The international festival of film direction in Leskovac was founded with the idea of cultural networking of the region. Cinematographies of this region, with their specificities, speak a universal language that is best understood by neighbors with a similar mentality and sensibility. In addition to the cultural diversity that this festival offers, it also provides the opportunity to meet filmmakers, which is the basis for creating a higher quality and more diverse market. Over the course of sixteen years, the festival hosted over 120 of the most famous directors of different generations, as well as a large number of actors from the region.
