The Rugby Warwickshire Film Festival is a small UK short-film event held at Rugby Art Gallery & Museum in Warwickshire. It is notable for emphasizing Midlands talent while also accepting films from elsewhere, and it focuses on short films, super-short films, music videos, and locally themed work about Rugby or made by local creators. Based on its submission profile, it functions more as a regional showcase than a major international festival, with significance rooted in promoting emerging local filmmakers and community-centered screening opportunities.
