The Into Film Festival is back and there’s still a huge amount on offer for Bristol educators and their pupils aged 5-19, including free film screenings, festival film guides, screen careers activity, and curriculum-linked special events.

The 2025 Into Film Festival will launch on 7 November with Premieres across the UK – including Bristol Watershed - of Future Council, the latest feature from director, Damon Gameau (2040, That Sugar Film). It is the story of eight kids on a road trip across Europe to challenge powerful leaders and find solutions to our greatest ecological challenges.

Meanwhile, writer and director Jordan Murphy Doidge will speak at Scott Cinemas, following a screening of his short film, Clout; a coming-of-age drama that explores the dark side of social media through the lives of four friends at school.
