The Tees Valley International Film Festival is a four day celebration of all aspects of the craft of filmmaking. We invite undiscovered and independent filmmakers from all over the world to submit their short films for inclusion in the festival, the best of which will be screened across the course of the four days. From there, a select few will be nominated for an award, the worthy winners being presented with their prize at our glittering closing ceremony.
It was a joy to be part of TVIFF. It's a wonderful event that not only highlights emerging filmmakers but also brings together film enthusiasts, industry professionals and artists from all walks of life. The exchange of ideas, the sharing of experiences and the networking opportunities at TVIFF are invaluable.
