Oh, and one more thing…

was our closing night film, and we’re thrilled to close out the festival with some proper British Sci-Fi.

We also had a fabulous Q&A with the director and a few of the cast members.

See you next year everyone!

And that’s a wrap people, that’s it, show’s over, but really, we want to thank everyone who made this year’s festival a success. 🎊

For the last day, we screened 3 shorts programmes, “Journey to no End” by Xian Cheng, and the film that closed out the festival, “Voidance” by Marianna Dean.

Again, we couldn’t do this without you, so thank you!

We’ll see everyone next year, live long and prosper. 👽

Day 4 was a success, if we do say so ourselves (and we will, thank you).

So, we want to thank every film that was shown yesterday that made this happen. That includes “Shackled” by Luke Spears, “Chatlines” by LLoyd Eyre-Morgan, and all the films in our two short film programmes.

Also, don’t panic, but tonight is the last night. Good news though, it’s not too late to join us! Tickets are still available at the link in our bio. 🔗
