Scarborough Film Festival 2023 !! Thankyou to everyone who came and those who supported from afar, we met so many wonderful people over the course of its four day run and learnt so much. It all came from a meeting last year between Elizabeth Boag and Martha Cattell and now we have put together 12 film events across four days in five different venues in Scarborough including a screening on a boat.

We were conscious of showing a wide range of films whilst also showcasing local talent: music, performance, film and food. It would not have been possible without the support of the various venues and collaborators, especially Film Hub North, SJT, SeaGrown, Scarborough Museums Trust, Mandy Apple, Craft Bar, Caribbean Pop-Up Cinema, Rebel Radics Sound System, Railway Club, Record Revivals, Locl Properties and Brass Castle Brewery.

Head to the website to read the daily blog by Laurence Boag-Matthews for more info and insight into the full schedule: https://lnkd.in/e8pQgk3S

We’re looking forward to making next year’s festival even better so if you have any suggestions for festivals to visit, films to show, people to collaborate with etc, please get in touch 😄

ARRIVE EARLY! Door open at 6.15pm

Ahead of their album launch on December 8th we are excited to premier the visual companion piece to The Hydrogen Trees debut album “Secret Arcade”. At our Festival Closing Event: Babylon, 7pm, Sunday 12th November at The Railway Club.

Made from scraps of experimental stop motion, time lapse and slo-mo clips studying the local area, what started out as a couple of promotional song videos quickly spiralled into a 30 minute collage sound-tracked by one of Scarborough's most underrated artists.
