Discovery Film Festival 2023 - Schools programme out now!

Welcome to the party! It's the 20th edition of Discovery Film Festival and we're delighted to be bringing you another packed programme of the best new international films for young audiences. 

Copies of this year’s programme are currently winging their way to your school (check with the office!) and you can download a copy here.

You're also warmly invited to our Teachers' Preview event on Wed 23 August from 16:15 – 18:00, where you can watch trailers of films in the programme, see the education resources, and chat to the teachers who created them.

All films are accompanied by exciting classroom resources, and for those schools able to join us in person, there is the opportunity to arrange bespoke additional activities to accompany your screening.

20 Discovery Film Festivals? Who would have thought that possible in our first year way back in 2004? Whether this is your first experience or if you've been with us every step of the way - we cant' wait for you to come and join the party! 

See you at the festival!

Festival Producer and Cinema Youth Development Officer
