Isle of Wight International Film Festival Tag: "Watch films on the Beach" With famous film connections the Isle of Wight is a wonderful late summer venue for all film makers.

New Festival for the UK

The directors are pleased to annouce the 1st Ryde Isle of Wight International Film Festival which is running from 20th September - 25th September 2010.

Based in Ryde, Isle of Wight, on the south coast of England. This is
the first International Film Festival to be held on the Island. With
its fantastic golden sands and town on the beach.We aim to become one
of the UK’s and internationally sought after film festivals.

So, we are open to anyone out there, who has made a film, thought of
making a film, or is in the process of making a film. To send your
entries to us use the withoutabox link or post them to us directly.

Films can be up to five years old and with over 20 categories to
choose from, there is no excuse for anyone to say they can’t have a go.

If it’s in your wardrobe or under your bed, dust it down and send it
off to us and we will show it on one of our big screens on the beach,
or at the traditional Commodore Theatre in the centre of town.

Looking forward to seeing you and your films on the beach in September – don’t forget your swimming costume!!!!!
