The Bucharest Film Festival is a defunct film festival active between 1948 and 1968 in the city of Bucharest founded by Nicolae Barbu. Originally known as the Bucharest Festival of Socialist Film due to its part funding by the Communist Party, the festival specialized in films of the Eastern Bloc and left-leaning European cinema. The festival was renamed after the relaxing of Moscow's hold on cinema that came with the death of Stalin.

The main prize was The Golden Wolf. Prizes were also awarded for Special Achievement in Direction, Best Actor and Best Film with a Socialist Theme. This last prize was dropped in 1954.

The festival has been replaced by the B-Est International Film Festival which started in 2005.
