Festival Overview: Screenings And Features

joining classic onedotzero compilation screening programmes wavelength, wow + flutter, extended play and j-star was the ever popular citystates and guest programme pictoplasma: characters in motion. four brand new curated programmes joined the line-up: audiences were wowed with leftfield horror with nightfall, caught animated gems from female directors in ladymation, were fascinated by robotica and caught work from cutting edge creatives in code warriors. it was great to present many of the emerging artists to introduce their captivating works featured in new british talent.
