County Adaptation Film Festival
Picton
Discover the art of storytelling transformed at the County Adaptation Film Festival (CAFF) and step into a world where stories leap from the page, the stage, and history itself onto the big screen.
Held each September, CAFF is a bold celebration of creative transformation—where adaptations take center stage and the journey from inspiration to cinema is honored in all its forms. From literary classics to graphic novels, memoirs to music, CAFF showcases compelling films that reinterpret original works through a cinematic lens.
More than just a film festival, CAFF is a conversation—a place where screenwriters, authors, filmmakers, and audiences gather to explore the power of narrative and its endless possibilities.
Whether you’re a cinephile, a creator, or a curious explorer of stories, CAFF invites you to discover the magic of adaptation in a setting as unique as the films themselves. Join us this fall to celebrate the stories that shape us—and the films that reimagine them.
We acknowledge that Prince Edward County rests within the ancestral lands and waters stewarded by the Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg (Mississauga), Huron Wendat, and Haudenosaunee. This is a place shaped by their presence, languages, and care since time immemorial. To acknowledge this land is to recognize our responsibility to live as good relatives with each other, with the earth, and with the generations yet to come.
