​Film Festival
​(BRIFF)

Brighton rocks international film festival icon
Brighton Rocks is home to films that fit with the City of Brighton’s out-there creative universe. Brighton is a mecca for artists from all walks of life. It is also a state of mind, an attitude, a spirit – one that dares to be itself. Are you ready to see if your film belongs here?​

Festival Director's Message

Dr James Rowlins
​Festival Director
​​​​Brighton Rocks International Film Festival welcomes submissions for the 6th year running.​​ ​​Brighton Rocks is a young festival with big ambitions: to give maximum support to emerging filmmakers and to become the UK’s main forum for indie and underground cinema. When you submit to Brighton Rocks, we pledge that your film will be reviewed by professionals with TLC. Our primary concern is how, not whether, to curate and screen your work. If your film embodies our attitudes and aspirations and fits into one or more of our categories, we want to help you get the recognition it deserves! ​

Screening Events

The 6th Brighton Rocks Festival at RIALTO Theatre  and FABRICA is scheduled for 21 - 25 June 2023. The Rocks Screening Room additionally provides an advanced platform for virtual screenings. Please see SCREENINGS for more information.
