Ann Campbell - Dunoon Film Festival

For the latest Scots Whay Hae! Podcast Ali spoke to Ann Campbell who is the Festival Director of the Dunoon Film Festival which moves to Spring this year, and runs between 24th - 27th April.

Ann talks about the history of the festival and the importance of the local community. She also explains her own role before breaking down this year's programme and what people can expect, emphasising that it is about so much more than just the films.

The two talk then talk about some of the highlights, including the attendance of Neil Brand (a silent film accompanist and presenter will present and perform live at three events), two special preview screenings of films that will have their UK release in May, Oscar winner I’m Still Here, big screen classics such as Oh, Brother Where Art Thou? and David Lynch's The Straight Story, a 70th anniversary singalong of Oklahoma!, and so much more.

Ann also explains the relationships with schools, local talent, and other partners who play a vital role in bringing the festival together. It's a warm and informative conversation which we hope will inspire you to take a trip doon the watter to attend what is one of the most varied and welcoming festivals around.
