CHELTENHAM INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 27 MAY – 1 JUNE 2019 2 3 THANK YOU TO OUR SUPPORTERS HELLO & WELCOME Welcome to the launch of the Cheltenham International Film Festival – a jamboree of film screenings, events, receptions and more. The Festival seeks to provide Cheltenham with an alternative to the commercial cinema experience. Throughout the Festival we shall screen independent films – features and shorts – from emerging filmmakers who have achieved critical acclaim all over the world. We shall also pay tribute to great filmmakers, every year nominating one director; in 2019, we are proud to honour and welcome Mike Leigh to our festival. And, we shall showcase filmmaking talent from other countries near and far; every year selecting a different country. In 2019, we are delighted to screen the best of Polish cinema and welcome highly-regarded directors, cinematographers and actors from Poland to Cheltenham. We hope you enjoy our Festival.
