Co-operative Young Film Makers Screenings

Glasgow Film Theatre

Recommended for ages 8+

Each year The Co-operative encourages young people to express themselves and make a short film. The result is the Co-operative Young Film-Makers Festival.  Join us for these special fun and educational screenings of Scottish films made by young people aged 8 – 22, which were entered into the Co-operative Young Film-Makers in 2009. The screenings are hosted by Project Ability and The Co-operative Membership Scotland. 

Come and see the talent and imagination of young film makers in Scotland including animations, documentaries and dramas. Watch films that are funny, fantastical, thought provoking and creative.

This is the start of a Scotland wide tour of the films. Over the year the screening event will travel to Edinburgh, Inverness and Dundee.
