Beeston Film Festival

The biggest international Top 100 Best Reviewed 5-star short film festival in the Midlands! Now entering our 8th year, we pride ourselves on championing international films from around the globe, providing a platform for challenging, innovative, diverse, and high-quality films for a growing local and global audience. This means the festival plans to have in-person screenings and an online festival (inclusion optional). With categories like Women’s Voices and A Better Place, we hope to foster a sense of global community, to show the world that no matter how different and varied our cultures may be, we all share the most important things: love, hope, dreams and the need to share our stories with the world. "Truly one of the best festival programming teams we've ever had the pleasure of working with! They did an amazing job pivoting to an online festival so quickly and so efficiently in the midst of this global pandemic. I truly hope we get to meet this staff during another festival run, just to thank them. We remain so honored to have our film ALINA participate at this wonderful festival. Thank you, Team Beeston!"
