GSFF hosts an inclusive community of filmmakers and film lovers, showcasing ground-breaking works of visual storytelling. We nurture and promote diverse forms of cinematic expression, in Scotland and around the world. Everything we do is intended to reflect our values of collaboration, enquiry, inclusion and solidarity. Inclusivity and accessibility is a core aspect of our vision, both for audiences and in nurturing new talent. Our Pay-What-You-Can ticketing system ensures no one is turned away for lack of funds. Our industry programme - open to all - aims to demystify film production and exhibition, and foster creativity at all levels. We engage directly with under-represented communities by taking programmes and workshops into community venues, schools and prisons. The discussions generated build understanding and connection within those community as well as feeding new creative projects and developing new skills.
