London Film Week
Emerging or unverified festival
London Film Week is an international film festival held in central London in the first half of December. It is notable for its selective programming of only a handful of films, giving chosen projects greater visibility, and for its focus on promoting international cinema across genres, from avant-garde independents to more established work. The festival brings together filmmakers, industry professionals, and cinephiles for screenings, discussions, and networking, giving it a curated niche within London's broader festival scene.[1][3][11][13]
