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

Founded in 2023, LandxSea is Scotland’s dedicated environmental film festival, held annually in Montrose, a coastal town in Northeast Scotland.

Every September, we bring together ground-breaking climate-focused films, inspiring guest speakers, and thought-provoking discussions, along with special events throughout the year. Our focus is the deep connection between land and sea, featuring a diverse selection of environmentally-focused films from around the world.

Our festival home is the Montrose Playhouse, a community-owned, state-of-the-art cinema and arts venue which opened in 2021.
