• cooperates with institutions and individuals working in the church and in film
• through personal exchange, discussion (seminars and research projects) and publishing, it promotes experiences derived from film
• supports the exchange of information and documentation on film and audiovisual media
• is committed to be present at international film festivals, awarding prizes to films, and makes the exchange and renting of selected films and audiovisual media easier.

One of Interfilm’s main tasks is to be present at international film festivals with its own jury. For their awards the juries select films that stand out due to their artistic quality: that show human attitudes or expressions of the Gospel or prompt a discussion, and which sensitize viewers to spiritual and social questions and values.

Jury members and those institutions that delegate them publicize the selected films in their own countries and support their evaluation. They are committed to a better understanding of contemporary film and to the questions, values and visions arising from it. Thus, they focus on the role of the church in a secularized society and promote an intensive dialogue between church and public, theology and culture, film criticism and filmmakers from all over the world.
