Fastnet Film Festival

Annually, over 5 days at the end of May, visitors can view the current year’s 200+ Competition shorts, screened in every corner of the village, attend Q&As, Premieres, Workshops and Discussions, enjoy superb family entertainment at the Fringe all in the beautiful seaside town of Schull, West Cork. We at FFF endeavor to screen as many films as possible submitted to our competition each year. It is difficult for filmmakers to reach large audiences and have their work appreciated. Our workshops attempt to provide very high quality hands on experiences for filmmakers. We concentrate on the craft of film, sharing of ideas where industry professionals and students share the same space.

The Fastnet Film Festival is very much an ‘up close and personal’ experience. Filmmakers, directors, producers and invited guest speakers all share their experiences, giving shape and direction to each year’s challenging programme. This Short Film Festival without a Cinema invites visitors to explore alternatives throughout the village of Schull, providing those who attend with something different.
