Honouring 70+ years of festival history, EIFF showcases the very best filmmaking talent in a re‑energised format that is rooted in a local Scottish context whilst embracing the international diversity of creative expression.

Helmed by CEO & Festival Director Paul Ridd and Festival Producer Emma Boa, the team works to create a world‑class showcase for independent film and filmmaking talent.
