Enter your film to be considered for the 20th edition of Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival!

Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival (BFMAF) is the UK’s Festival for New Cinema & Artists’ Moving Image. Taking place in England’s most Northerly town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, the 20th edition will be taking place 27 - 30 March 2025.

Entries are predominantly considered for the New Cinema Awards. As well as being showcased at the Festival, each filmmaker receives a £400 award. 

We're looking for films that are alive to this moment and transcend boundaries of genre, form, and convention. We strive for rich and diverse programming that inspires questions and multiple interpretations.

For inspiration, we recommend taking a look at BFMAF’s archive of past Festivals. Our programming is incredibly diverse, but centres on New Cinema and Artists’ Moving Image. You can read more on the thinking behind BFMAF programming from Festival Director Peter Taylor in this recent interview featured in International Documentary Association.

• Early Call (£15) Monday 2 September 2024 23:59 BST
