ABOUT FILMING EAST FESTIVAL

Filming East Festival (FEF) was founded by UK Film Council in 2007. FEF is a film festival, industry session programme and meeting place, as well as a charity registered in England and Wales, offering screenings, controversial discussion panels and learning opportunities all year round.
