We ran our first event in 2023, annd year on year, the festival has grown to new heights.
The white rose film festival is owned and run by two individuals with a passion for helping fellow creatives to get the recognition and exposure they deserve. We both come with a wealth of experience in creative media, from film, to books, producing, directing and screenwriting. We are supported by a group of trusted judges and guarantee that every single entry we receive is watched / read and scored with transparency and in full. Here's a little about who we are:
