The 2020 & 2021 edition of the Close:Up Edinburgh Docufest is here and will take place on December 16th and 17th, at Cameo Picturehouse. The festival is organised by HF Productions and our goal and vision is to create a platform for filmmakers from all around the world to showcase their engaging works.
This year the festival team is excited to present the previously postponed 2020 & 2021 editions that include a wide selection of 21 documentary films in total that can make the viewers reflect, feel and connect.
On both dates, the cinema will open its doors for the audience at 17:45, the festival will operate on a first come first serve basis and on December 17th, the screenings will be followed by the awards ceremony of both editions. All films will be screened in English or with English subtitles.
