The Future of the Festival

Can you help keep the festival going? BPFF is a charity run by volunteers on a shoestring budget and we rely on ticket sales, donations and arts funding. By going digital we can bring Palestinian films to a wider audience, but without cinema ticket sales and with arts funding being re-prioritised, the future of the festival is at risk. If you are able to donate even a small amount, then we would be eternally grateful. Thank you, from the festival team.

Bristol Palestine Film Festival 2020

Welcome to the Bristol Palestine Digital Film Festival 2020
– it’s online and free.

For 10 days, we are showing 24 short films to celebrate our 10-year anniversary. That’s 10 years of compelling, inspiring, funny, cinema, reflecting the lives of Palestinians. Many of the films in our 2020 programme were released this year and range from drama, documentary and experimental. Scroll down to start watching.
