The 2017 Delta Film Award
Named in honour of the group of amateur film-makers whose efforts enlivened many a 1960s science fiction convention (members included Tony Edwards and the much-missed Harry Nadler, the founding fathers – with Gil Lane-Young – of this very festival), the Delta Film Awards recognize significant achievement by low-budget directors.
This competition screens exactly the kind of material you attend the Festival of Fantastic Films for, and which you’ll be eager to crow about to your friends in the months after. So why not come along on Sunday morning for one of the more cutting-edge events at what remains Britain’s best celebration of cinema fantastique? And if you know someone who’s working on a homegrown movie, pass on the word for next year’s competition.
