Adana Golden Boll Film Festival (Turkish: Adana Altın Koza Film Festivali), known between 2016 and 2018 as International Adana Film Festival (Uluslararası Adana Film Festivali),[1] is a film festival in Adana, Turkey, that was held five times between 1969 and 1974 and every year since 2005. The event is organized by the Adana Metropolitan Municipality and takes place in June. Beginning from 2006, the scope of the festival is broadened to an international dimension within the framework of the cinema in Mediterranean basin countries.

The festival, taking its name from cotton boll, the traditional crop grown in the region, includes national feature films along with international short subjects (since 2006) and student films of young Mediterranean filmmakers (from 2008 on).[2] The 15th edition of the festival was held between June 2–8, 2008.[3]
