The mission of the Raw Science Film Festival (RSFF) is to humanize science and ensure fact-based experts stay at the forefront of popular culture by celebrating the best science storytelling in the world. It honors luminaries in science, technology, and media and showcases best-in-class films globally.

The festival was initially made possible by the National Academy of Sciences and Science and Entertainment Exchange. The next festival is in April 2020 in Los Angeles, California directly followed by a media marketplace in Guanacaste, Costa Rica with participation throughout Latin America.
