The English Riviera Film Festival is a celebration of film-making in the South West and a supporter of the film makers worldwide . That has developed from a one day event in 2015 to a International recognised Film Event in October 2018 . Our aim is to promote the English Riviera and the South West as a location where the film industry can do business and where there is already a wealth of talent in film-making and its associated disciplines deserving a wider exposure.
