Dear friends and filmmakers,

Welcome to the 8th Thurrock International Film Festival. Rooted in Thurrock’s rich history, the festival has grown into a global platform for fearless storytelling, where independent voices meet diverse audiences.

This year’s programme spans bold shorts, powerful features, and urgent documentaries, highlighting underrepresented perspectives across race, class, gender identity, sexuality, and geography.

With support from Film Hub South East and the BFI FAN, we invite you to a weekend of cinema and discovery, culminating in a special Awards Ceremony at the Garden Cinema in London.

Jun Noh | Executive Festival Director

With support of the BFI Film Audience Network, awarding funds from the National Lottery in order to bring this project to more audiences across the UK

With the support of Thames Freeport - creating opportunities for the community
