The 6th Braziers International Film Festival was held from Aug 30 – Sept 1, 2024 at Braziers Park, Oxfordshire, UK. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the festival and to all who came along!
The festival featured several curated programmes of international films, an installation, communal gatherings and discussions with many attending filmmakers. Films were selected by a team of artist-filmmakers and independent curators, who run the festival as a not-for-profit collective, with proceeds going to Braziers Park School of Integrative Social Research, a progressive educational charity and one of Europe’s longest running ‘intentional communities’.
This year our Special Focus screening was Foragers, directed by Jumana Manna, and our installation work was Our future, our past, whisper it to me, directed by Charlotte Ginsborg.
The Glaister Award, as voted by our audience, was this year awarded to Vibrations from Gaza, directed by Rehab Nazzal.

In light of the continuing war on Gaza and in the occupied West Bank we present a special online programme of free films and reportage videos in solidarity with the people of Palestine, including a Special Focus on films made by historian Edward Said.
Submissions for our 2024 festival are now closed.
Thank you to all the filmmakers who have sent us their work.
Submissions for our 2025 festival will open again soon in Sept 2024, through FilmFreeway:
