CFF40 presents 95 titles from 45 countries, including 21 UK premieres, and the full programme is available NOW!
After more than a year of presenting films through our dedicated online CFF@Home screening room, we're thrilled to be back where we belong, screening films in the Arts Picturehouse from 18th - 25th November.
This year for the first time we're also taking the UK's third longest running film festival online with our first ever solo UK-wide digital programme, streaming between 21st November - 5th December.
CFF40 @ Home is a great way to make sure you get to see as many amazing films as possible. When you can't make it to the cinema it's reassuring to know there is a selection of CFF features and shorts just waiting for you to stream at home.
We're even going to be announcing a few online exclusive titles over the coming weeks!!
We can't wait to welcome you back to the cinema for CFF40, and hope you are as excited about the films below (and the full CFF programme) as we are.
