Unrestricted View Film Festival presents AIFF’s Best of the Fests.

Join us for ‘Best of the Fests 2025’, a one-night-only showcase bringing together standout short films from across the UK’s indie film festival circuit. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers.

This event is brought to you by AIFF (Association of Independent Film Festivals), a group championing transparency, fairness, and equitable treatment for filmmakers, and setting and upholding a charter that ensures member festivals operate with integrity and respect.

Expect bold storytelling and a variety of genres, from the hilarious to the heartfelt.
