Special Ocean Screening at the Cornwall Film Festival Black Tide is an evening of elemental cinema — a powerful collection of films that delve into our deep and complex relationship with the ocean. Presented as part of the Cornwall Film Festival, this special programme invites audiences to surrender to the sea’s mysteries: its beauty, its resilience, and its fragility in the face of human ambition.

INDUSTRY FOCUS 2025:
PRODUCING

EXPLORING THE ART AND BUSINESS OF SCREEN PRODUCTION

At Cornwall Film Festival 2025, our annual Industry Focus shines a spotlight on the vital and often misunderstood role of the Producer. Whether you're working in short films, feature narratives, factual TV, or digital platforms, producing sits at the heart of the screen industry. ​ This year’s focus explores all facets of producing—from development and financing, to production logistics, distribution strategy, and creative leadership. Through talks, panels, roundtables, and networking, we’ll be lifting the curtain on what it really takes to get a story from script to screen.
