Taking place from Friday 13 - Sunday 15 September, this year's programme brings a mix of exciting new releases, iconic classics and intriguing documentaries. GYFF will also host four Behind the Scenes workshops, a must for any young person interested in pursuing film as career.
The festival is co-programmed by a group of Young Programmers aged 15 to 18, who are mentored through a summer school with the Glasgow Film team. All screenings and events take place at Glasgow Film Theatre.
