Who wants a free day pass to Sheffield Doc/Fest on Saturday 6th June 2015?

This is an opportunity designed specifically for BFI Film Academy alumni at Sheffield Doc/Fest on June 6 2015 to include film screenings, a panel discussion, networking opportunities and access to leading industry figures plus information about opportunities for young filmmakers.

This is a great opportunity to engage with a leading International festival and the best bit is that it's being offered free to BFI Film Academy Leeds alumni (registration would normally be £150). This is a limited offer and there are only 25 places so unfortunately it will need to be on a first come, first served basis.
We may be able to arrange some transport from Leeds depending on numbers so please let Zoe know when you reply whether you will require transport and we'll try and sort something out although can't guarantee this at this stage. The festival is based at the Showroom in Sheffield - it's just across from the railway station so easy to get to if you travel there by train.

You also need to be 18 years old or over to attend. Contact [email protected] for more information :-)
