The film festival for filmmakers who want to make a difference by telling the stories of seldom heard communities and global issues such as poverty, migration, xenophobia, inequality, environment, mental health and war.

The film festival is held in exclusive venues around the UK & Europe for visitors from the public sector, government officials and third sector professionals who are looking to expand their outlook on social impact.

The festival is based in Bradford.

The films are presented alongside panel discussions and networking opportunities for the filmmakers to connect directly with people who are active in the charity/social sector.

We are looking for films which educate the audience on social issues. No topic is too small and all communities are welcome.

The heart of the festival is to help the world become a fairer and safer place through the art of filmmaking.

  • An emerging film festival with a promising future—highly professional, well-organized, welcoming, and communicative. I strongly recommend submitting your work to this festival, especially if your film explores impactful, change-driven themes.

    Our very first film selection - unfortunately due to bad traffic we missed the event coming back up from London but fully believe in the ethos of the festival and know the calibre of films we showed alongside must have been really high. Well done Pish and the rest of the team.

    I couldn't go but the editor of our film went and he had a great time. People loved the film and they came over to express what they thought. Good networking and a great atmosphere. I'm very sorry about missing out on the top notch free samosas too.
