The American Film Showcase (AFS) is the United States' flagship international film and TV commercial diplomacy program. In partnership with U.S. Embassies worldwide, AFS connects American film, TV, and gaming industry experts with international professionals and businesses through workshops, masterclasses, consultations, screenings, and panels.

AFS is an initiative of the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and is produced by the USC School of Cinematic Arts.

Since 2012, the American Film Showcase has worked in more than 140 countries, held more than 6,000 screenings of American films, and sent more than 500 American experts abroad, drawing on the rich expertise of SCA's award-winning faculty and alumni, as well as film and TV industry professionals from across the United States.
