This spring, Cheltenham will see the opening of the inaugural Cheltenham International Film Festival (CIFF). Taking place over six days, the Festival will screen the work of emerging filmmakers in competition, and pay homage to the legacy of cinema by screening, out of competition, the early films of directors who have achieved critical acclaim and commercial success. The festival will host up to 45 events which will include masterclasses, panels, lectures/talks, parties, receptions, a closing night awards dinner on 1st June 2019 and a major film premiere.
This year's Festival will have a special focus on Polish films and filmmakers. CIFF will showcase the work of emerging and critically-acclaimed directors from Poland, who will be in attendance with their films - Jan Komasa, Łukasz Grzegorzek, and Małgorzata Szumowska, one of the growing number of women directors from Poland making their mark.
