The '''Garetolia Film Festival''' (GFF) is an annual event that shows and gives awards to movies of that year. First held in 1999, the event focuses on the best movies of the year, carefully chosen by the [[Garetolian Screen Actors' Guild]] (GSAG) every November. Hosts are also decided by the GSAG in June. Originally, the festival had four awards: Best Comedy; Best Action; Best Horror; and Best Film, given to one of the winners of the other three categories. Since then, the GFF has added two new awards and replaced one: Best Drama, introduced in 2013; Best Romance, introduced in 2011; and Best Dark Film, replacing Best Horror in 2012. The GSAG introduced a rule in 2006 that requried all films to have a rating of PG-13 or lower, as to keep the event family-friendly; as a consequence, the number of horror/slasher films gradually decreased over time, forcing the GFF to replace the category in 2012.

The Garetolia Film Festival (Abbreviated GFF; Garetolian: One'ike re'Karātōl'ikī, lit. "Record Festival of Garetolia") is an annual event that shows and gives awards to movies of that year. First held in 1999, the event focuses on the best movies of the year, carefully chosen by the Garetolian Screen Actors' Guild (GSAG) every November. Hosts are also decided by the GSAG in June. Originally, the festival had four awards: Best Comedy; Best Action; Best Horror; and Best Film, given to one of the winners of the other three categories. Since then, the GFF has added two new awards and replaced one: Best Drama, introduced in 2013; Best Romance, introduced in 2011; and Best Dark Film, replacing Best Horror in 2012. In 2006, the GSAG recommended that films have a rating of PG-13 or lower, as to keep the event family-friendly; as a consequence, the number of horror/slasher films gradually decreased over time, forcing the GFF to replace the category in 2012. Films must be at least 60 minutes in duration and have been released within the last 12 months.

The winners of the event are awarded the Golden Star, which was first introduced in 2001. Voting is done by the attendees of the event, usually a crowd of around 400, and ties are broken by members of the GSAG.
