All while finishing off the very successful Doc Lounge Prison Project, and continuing on working with Doc Lounge Caucasus, Moving Docs and Doc Lounge Live. The network of Doc Lounge clubs is still going strong, delivering high qual- ity events reaching out to broad audiences all over the Nordic countries and in spring we welcomed Doc Lounge Umeå to the family.

  • CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS of FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT How Do We Fit It All In?!
    7 SEP 18 4 OCT 18 1 | 7 SEP 18 - 4 OCT 18 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECINEMA.COM CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS OF FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT How do we fit it all in?! Here at Filmhouse, across the year, we play host to a dizzying array of film festivals (at last count there were in excess of thirty of them!) – some are only a few shows, some are as long as two weeks, all are an essential part of the overall cinematic offering that is Filmhouse. The fact is, we couldn’t run these festivals ourselves – we just don’t have the resource to watch and source all the films these festivals bring us – and so are entirely reliant on the skill and enthusiasm of the programmers and organisers of them. But please don’t imagine we’ve given over curatorial control lightly, for we take the quality of what hits our screen very seriously indeed. Why, if they don’t continually hit the standards we set ourselves… well… they’re out! I mention these ‘partner’ festivals now because September traditionally sees the beginning of a period in which many of them take place, kicking off with one of my favourites (don’t tell any of the others!), Take One Action, the festival of active citizenship (my words, not theirs), and swiftly followed (in October) by the Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival, Scotland Loves Anime, Edinburgh Short Film Festival, Africa in Motion and (in November) French Film Festival UK… to name but a few. It’s a busy time for sure but an exciting one, what with variety being the spice of life and everything.

We are both excited and proud to present our fourth edition of this unique and propitious industry platform. MAFF Market Forum was launched with the ambition to bring the two worlds together, intertwining them with a tailored program created to build partnerships in an intimate environment. We bring together producers, funders, distributors and lm professionals in order to foster a cultural exchange and expand the production landscape. MAFF Market Forum was sprung out of the same ambition as the festival itself; to promote the Arab lm industry, create a gender and cultural diversity in the lm industry, and of course - to ensure all stories get a chance to be heard and seen. Even before the implementation of the rst edition of MAFF Market Forum, we realized that the initiative would have a major impact. Said and done - today, after only three years, several Nordic-Arabic lm collaborations have been implemented and initiated through our platform. And when we say our platform, we include an incredibly important part of the success; the participants. We are beyond thrilled to every year welcome lm professionals from all over the world. This year is no exception, and some of the most signicant and inuential institutes and organizations from both the Nordic countries and the Arab world are attending.
