Audience Award & Scores

Well, what a weekend that was!

There were some surprise hits, as always – My Sailor, My Love was really popular as was Ajoomma. Io Capitano was gripping. The Awards contenders did some heavy lifting too, with The Zone of Interest and American Fiction both scoring well. For a while it looked as if The Taste of Things would take the Audience Award but on Sunday morning a small-ish audience at Rheged were blown away by Tótem, scoring it at 89.7% - a worthy winner.

For once a documentary didn’t get the highest score, but Mayor, Four Daughters and Scala!!! were all well-received.

The full results are on the website but here is the top 10:

1. Totem - 89.6
2. The Taste of Things - 86.7
3. Mayor - 86.6
4. American Fiction - 86.3
5. Io Capitano - 84.1
6. My Sailor, My Love - 81.4
7. Four Daughters - 81.2
8. The Zone of Interest  - 76.9
9. Ajoomma - 76.8
10. Scala!!!  - 73.4

Shuttle Bus & Pass Holders Party

We are pleased to announce that the shuttle bus to Rheged on the Sunday of the Festival will be running again. Spaces are limited so you will need to book your seats, please see the travel page for more details.

Also coming back is the passholders’ party, which will take place after the screening of Between the Lights on Thursday 29th February. We will be using the Masonic Hall opposite the Alhambra as well as the Alhambra itself - it’s a great chance to catch up with old friends and make some new ones.
