About the festival

UKCineFest is a student film festival open to students of any age from around the world! In May of 2018, student filmmakers will gather to watch each other’s movies on the big screen and to find out whose film has won this year’s top awards at the UKCineFest 2018 Student Film Festival. This year promises to be even more exciting than usual; as well as showing student films and giving out awards the festival will be screening some of the best international short films from the Aesthetica Film Festival.

UKCineFest is dedicated to free submissions. We believe all students should have the opportunity to share their work with other talented, energetic filmmakers!

The event has partnered once again with the BAFTA recognized Aesthetica Short Film Festival (ASFF) to bring you some of the best work being produced today.
