MORE THAN MOVIES. A MOVEMENT.

LandxSea is Scotland’s environmental film festival, bringing bold films, inspiring guests and communities together in Montrose.

Since launching in 2023, we’ve welcomed audiences of all ages for premieres, filmmaker Q&As, school screenings, workshops, community gatherings and the occasional bracing dip in the North Sea.
