The next screening of our SCENE programme of short films is going to be taking place in November as part of Cornwall Film Festival. Featuring 14 films from young filmmakers in the South West, there’s a huge range of styles and genres to check out, from moving documentaries to surreal animations!
After the screening, we’re really excited to have Joe from Bear Behind You, who directed City Fishing join us for a Q&A about their film.
Please note: this screening is not a public event and will only be for students in Cornwall who will receive more information through their colleges. Please contact Cornwall Film Festival with any queries.
