This year’s celluloid celebration takes place at venues across Belfast from March 20 – 28 screening more than 70 films over 9 days. Audiences can look forward to a host of Irish Premieres, an exhilarating mix of screenings and discussion based around the main festival theme of ‘Filming Women’, and a range of award winning films and guests from around the world.
According to Festival Director Michele Devlin, “It’s not only the date that’s new about this year’s festival which has traditionally been held in September, but also our relationship with long standing partner Orange who we’re delighted to announce have stepped up to become title sponsor in 2003.”
Orange are no strangers to the world of film as seen in their support of the recent BAFTA awards in London and we’re confident that their involvement will not only add value to the Festival experience but also help to bring the nine day cinematic extravaganza to a much wider audience.
