It's here! 🎉 The 2026 Montrose LandxSea Film Festival programme is now on sale with select early bird screenings available to book, and details of some of this year's incredible special guests.
The team have concocted a truly epic, three-day weekend filled with films of every flavour, from as far as Nigeria, Iraq, Bolivia and Croatia, as well as homegrown cinema from exciting, Scottish and UK filmmakers.
This summer, for the first time, we're popping up at PoP Shop Montrose for a week of exciting activities and preview events for all ages, offering locals a taste of LandxSea Film Festival ahead of our September programme!
From 16–22 August, we’re taking over PoP Shop on Montrose High Street with a lively week of film-inspired workshops, talks, drop-ins and beach activities for children, teenagers and adults.
This June, part of our LandxSea Monthly programme of powerful films about people and planet, we're screening TIME & WATER by award-winning director Sara Dosa (Oscar for Best Documentary Feature, FIRE OF LOVE, 2023). An epic, emotional personal story from the glaciers of Iceland.
LandxSea Monthly returns with György Pálfi's HEN from Conic films. 🐔
Told entirely from the perspective of its avian protagonist, HEN follows a chicken who escapes an industrial farm only to find herself navigating the pecking order of a crumbling seaside restaurant in Greece.
