London Breeze Film Festival has become a exciting launchpad for emerging filmmakers, whether they’re working from a kitchen table in Brixton or a rooftop in Bogotá. We champion fresh voices, bold stories, and the kind of cinema that continues to make an impact long after the credits roll.
Throughout the year, we bring filmmakers and audiences together, building lasting connections that go beyond the festival. And we help emerging filmmakers navigate the industry before, during, and after the festival.
In 2024 alone, we received 700+ film entries, welcomed over 1,000 live attendees, and racked up more than 11,000 online views. Now, in our 10th incredible year, we’re going even bigger.
An incredibly warm and supportive festival. As an emerging filmmaker, you couldn't want for a better festival. The support they gave my film and the platform to get eyes on my film has been incredible.
Had a lovely time at the festival. The venue was stunning and it was a pleasure to meet so many other filmmakers and organisers so passionate about emerging film.
Great venue and amazing film selection! It was a real pleasure to meet a lot of likeminded filmmakers and enthusiastic organisers! Hoping to be back again for the next round!
A great festival and wonderful platform for emerging filmmakers. So delighted with our Best Documentary Award ! Very friendly team of organisers, and great industry talks.
Very much enjoyed being a part of the Barnes Film Festival with my film, Candle Cops. Great venue by the river with lots of opportunities to meet fellow film makers. It’s on my ‘go next year too!’ List! Enjoy!
Great people, wonderful screenings and a really positive and supportive vibe all the way through. It was great my film Speed is Expensive was selected... but then it won the Audience Award! Really looking forward to next year.
Very professional Festival. I'm so grateful that it gives young film makers a chance to show their work.
Thank you for selecting my Short Documentary film ‘Memories of Mortlake’ for the festival. It was a dream come true and it was lovely to meet the passionate Festival team!
The festival was such a beautiful experience which I highly recommend for all filmmakers. Thank you for having my film ‘My Own Personal Lebanon’ and I hope I will be able to attend the festival in the near future again.
The Barnes Film Festival is a gem. Highly selective, deeply creative and perfectly organized. You can tell they love what they do. It's a great place to discover rising artists, connect and enjoy cinema in its purest form.
Fantastic to see a team put a festival together for exactly the right reasons - supporting indie filmmakers, and sharing the love of film! A beautiful selection of films and a ton of interviews and workshops with industry greats like Neil Gaiman and Malcolm McDowell.
A festival that provides a great launchpad for debut filmmakers with their amazing patrons, judges and fantastic curation. The passion of the BFF team to deliver an outstanding event is evident.
I had a ton of fun here. Really well managed and everyone was lovely! Thanks so much for choosing my film as a winner 😀
What a fantastic festival. It was the best screening we've had a lovely cinema, engaged & supportive packed audience & super helpful festival team. I would highly recommend it. Thank you so much to all the Barnes festival team.
What an amazing festival! Run by lovely people and awesome volunteers. Very professional and well organised, lovely venues and great hospitality. So honoured to be a part of it in 2019!
A wonderful festival run by a dedicated, friendly and passionate team. I enjoyed meeting the team, and found such a great selection of films in the competition screenings. I have vowed to come back next year.
Great festival, really nice team. Thanks again for welcoming me and my film at your festival.
I enjoyed the film festival so much! It was easy to enter and there was great communication and it was very easy to get answers to any questions I had. On the day, it was brilliant and they were very kind. Would definitely enter again! Thank you for having me!
London Breeze was, fittingly, a whirlwind experience. We managed to attend the opening night film, Naqqash Khalid's 'In Camera' which was easily in my top 5 films of the year. The screening of our film, 'Where Are All the Gay Superheroes?' was an utter delight with a packed audience and thought-provoking Q&A afterwards. Great communication throughout. We hope to be back soon!
A great London festival seemingly going from strength to strength in their support for emerging filmmakers. Brilliant lineup, panels and events, we were honoured to have Between the Lights have a London premiere and receive an Honourable Mention. Some great fellow filmmakers and networking opportunities too. Sam, Madeleine and the whole team are so welcoming and supportive - we truly had a memorable time both on the night of our screening and over the course of a few days.
