FLATPACK FILM FESTIVAL 2020 - AT YOUR PLACE!

DATES: 1-17 MAY

VENUE: YOUR PLACE

You can’t keep a good Flatpack down… we are delighted to present a special online edition that will bring our acclaimed, BAFTA-qualifying short film competition direct to your home and completely free. Thanks to an amazing response from participating filmmakers and distributors - who in normal circumstances would expect to launch their films through cinema screenings - we are able to present a significant majority of the planned competition programme here on the Flatpack site. Expect the usual eclectic stew of animation, documentary and inventive weirdness, with a number of UK premieres in the mix. This User's Guide has some pointers on making the most of the programme.

There are seven prizes up for grabs, including a new screendance award, and we will of course need your help selecting the two audience award winners. Programmes will be launching here daily from 1 May, and you can also expect special virtual outings for quarterly animation gathering Overlap and PechaKucha Birmingham. Browse below for more details, and keep an eye on our blog and social media for updates. Although there will be no charge for accessing any of the programmes, if you are able to make a donation to Flatpack then please do consider it - your support will help to make future events possible.
