SuperHouse media is a proud sponsor of the Detroit Windsor International Film Festival. We have donated our web services to help promote this landmark inagural festival.
On June 26-29, 2008, the Detroit Windsor International Film Festival
(DWIFF) celebrates our love for the movies- and our passion for the art
of film, as we bring together all of those involved in the process,
from writer, director and cameraman- to the fans sitting out there in
the dark!
This festival reaches to all levels and corners of the filmmaking
industry, and brings it into focus to support the growth of a strong
film culture. A culture we can use to build new opportunities in our
region.

The DWIFF is a unique event. More than a film festival, we are a
rallying point for a new type of film culture. A culture that builds
on 100 years of film- and looks forward into the digital future. This
is Detroit. With our neighboring city of Windsor, who sets the bar for
support of film and the arts- we are a natural for bringing the film
industry here to share in our history for innovation, creativity and
tenacity!
Our Mission is to serve as a leader in promoting the collective talent
and resources which we have in abundance for the world's filmmaking,
video, music and entertainment industries.
Sure, you'll see a great collection of indie and featured films.
You'll also attend workshops, product demonstrations and listen in on
industry gurus and meet success stories from Michiganders who "made it"
in the entertainment world. You'll go to parties and meet other
talented people from the music industry and mingle with artists at some
hot art galleries. This is the big picture. Detroit and Windsor offer
a one-of-a-kind experience in the world of film, art and
entertainment. And the DWIFF is the way to see it all working
together!
DWIFF creates points of light in Windsor and in Detroit, at quality
venues for films, workshops and parties! We invite the young and old,
the veterans and novices, the pros and the fans. You'll see cinema
from both sides of the camera and walk away with a new perspective on
storytelling and the state of the art.
This website offers suggestions on how to participate in the DWIFF
festival. Take a look around and get involved in some way, either as a
volunteer or just to come and have a great weekend with your family and
friends. Make your plans today. If you have any questions, please
