The festival was a revelation. Organised to a fine detail the Satisfied Eye International Film Festival is a filmmaker’s dream. One of the best in the UK.

ALREADY RATED AS ONE OF THE BEST NEW FILM FESTIVALS IN THE WORLD and run entirely by volunteers, sponsorship is vital to the success of the Satisfied Eye International Film Festival (SEIFF).

Every sponsor makes a difference and establishes themselves not only as local champions, but patrons of the cream of global independent cinema.

After only 2 years, SEIFF is already ranked in the top 100 film festivals around the world (out of over 8500). With a high quality programme of Oscar and BAFTA winners, World, European and UK premieres, A list talent and incomparable filmmakers from the likes of Sundance and Cannes, sponsors have the chance to ensure SEIFF remains one of the hottest global festivals, putting the borough firmly on the cultural map.

The Satisfied Eye International Film Festival has one simple aim: to make the borough a thriving must-go destination, a vibrant, bustling town that connects people in a love of cinema, where busy cafes and restaurants buzz with the sound of people discussing the movies they’ve seen.

The festival was created to connect people in lasting ways, where a lively and thriving community of filmmakers and filmgoers, families, students, businesses and locals are united in a true celebration of film and all the borough has to offer; not just during the festival, but all year round.

SEIFF brings the excitement of film to all audiences, all demographics, containing a hugely diverse and rich programme of feature films, short films, documentaries and animation.

It’s a chance to be there and join the ride as the next Scorsese, Streep or Sorkin begin their incredible journeys.

SEIFF connects sponsors directly with important consumers and contributes to the local cultural landscape.

SEIFF presents incredible works and undiscovered gems, from children’s animation to hard-hitting documentaries and rip-roaring comedies, engaging audiences by offering films they can’t see anywhere else and may never have the opportunity to see again.

With a programme of year round events, free family screenings, comic con, in-house productions, mentoring schemes and workshops, SEIFF is a true community asset with global reach.

With a social media audience of 500,000 we are an event with a growing reputation, with submissions from 58 countries and attendees this year from as far afield as USA, Canada, Germany, Finland, Belgium, France and Estonia. And we’re growing every year.

We greatly appreciate all the individuals and companies that help make the festival possible.  Contact us to discuss tailored packages, and click on the button below to see our sponsor packet.
