The Beeston Film Festival bridges the generation gap. West of the Horizon, set on the remote coast of Connemara, where a runaway trans-teenager's chance encounter with a bereaved, suicidal fisherman & they form an unlikely bond. #filmfestival #films #bekind #beeston youtu.be/dsqk4UZJ0hM

The Beeston Film Festival tells the stories that are hard to hear, but passionate filmmakers create compelling drama to bring human stories to life "Demons" is a powerful heartbreaking story that pulls no punches #filmfestival #films #lgtbq #beeston youtu.be/6VMfQzkb034

The Beeston Film Festival gives a platform for acting talent and no more so than in Hide. Niamh Blackshaw's compelling performance is being recognised with a B'Oscar Nomination. A story of the state failing so many children. #filmfestival #welfarenotwarfare youtu.be/5BxDK02oBKc

Beeston Film Festival loves a laugh, too! Sometimes, the laughter comes from rather unexpected places. "A man travels back to his smalltown home to tell his parents about the disturbing discovery he made in his brothers freezer." #filmfestival #films #comedy #Beeston youtu.be/YEIgb-VBA4k

Beeston Film Festival has DRAMA in its very DNA. Nothing gets more dramatic than childbirth, and I've been there five times! This film quietly peels away each minute of a shift on the Maternity ward, pulling on emotions and screaming with tension. #filmfestival #films #Beeston youtu.be/YOeEvEBOdjI

Running the Beeston Film Festival has given me some amazing people, yet one of the most inspirational people I've met via the festival is Beeston's own Janet Shipton. Her determination is at the forefront in this great film, "Shaken Not Stirred" #films #filmfestival #beeston youtu.be/IynyhgGRc1A

Israeli authorities have caused massive, deliberate forced displacement of Palestinian civilians in #Gaza since October 2023 and are responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity. New Human Rights Watch report: hrw.org/news/2024/11...
