That’s a Wrap on LandxSea 2024!
Montrose LandxSea Film Fest 2024 (13-15 September) was an incredible weekend of films, discussions, and community!
Congratulations to Our 2024 Award Winners
- Finding Bo – Winner of the inaugural North Light Award for excellence in Scottish environmental filmmaking.
- Billy & Molly: An Otter Love Story – Winner of the Audience Award, as voted by festival-goers.
These two films beautifully capture the connection between humans and animals through outstanding storytelling and breathtaking cinematography.
Thank You to Our Community
None of this would be possible without the support of our sponsors, filmmakers, volunteers, and attendees. LandxSea is a festival built by and for the community, and we are thrilled to have you as part of it.
About Montrose LandxSea Film Festival
LandxSea is Scotland’s first dedicated environmental film festival, launched in 2023. Rooted in the coastal town of Montrose, our festival showcases films and discussions that explore the deep connections between land and sea.
Each September, we present a weekend of thought-provoking films, guest speakers, and engaging discussions, plus special events throughout the year.
Our festival home is the Montrose Playhouse, a community-owned, state-of-the-art cinema and arts venue.
