Napoli Film Festival is a film festival in Naples whose international section presents Italian premieres of European and independent features, with attention to films directed by women and by authors awarded at other festivals. The festival is directed by Mario Violini, and the 2025 edition is its 26th. Its Schermo Napoli section is devoted to works made by authors from Campania or shot in the region, with a short film competition judged by the audience in the hall and showcases of features and documentaries. The 2019 edition also included Videoclip Sessions, a programme of music videos.

The dates for the 2025 edition are 1–3 December for the international section and 15–17 December for Schermo Napoli, held at the TEDéR – Teatro del Rimedio, the festival's venue that year. The festival logo, a Vesuvius with a plume of smoke, is the work of the artist Lello Esposito, who also sculpted the Vesuvio award.
