IRL - In Real Life
This years motto is important in so many ways. with increasing use of technology, we want this years festival to highlight something real and outside the digital world of communication, gaming or virtual reality.
The pandemic caused us to rely on technology more than ever to stay connected but maybe we have lost a sense of reality through this. We hope this years Deep Fried Film Festival will allow film makers from around the world express their reality, their truth, through the medium of film making.
As ever, Deep Fried Film Festival will giving the opportunity to charities to host screenings to raise funds (anywhere in the world) and our online screenings will be raising money for the people of Ukraine.
in 2021, we launched our YouTube show, Pulled Focus, and will be inviting successful submissions to interview again this year.

Each film screened will receive audience feedback (which will be fed back to the film makers and will only be made public with permission.) At the end of the year we will announce the highest scoring films in each category.
We will of course be promoting and updating screenings as we go via social media, YouTube and our website.

There are awards - oh yes there are!!!
