Sprouts Film Festival

ecocinema & debut films

In times of a glitching world, with weather extremes and inhumane conflicts intensifying, it can be tempting to avert your gaze. Instead, Sprouts wants to make the cinema a site for peaceful protest by showing newly released ecocinema and socially critical debut films. All selected features and shorts are fiction, because it is our belief that through the power of imagination we can alter our behaviour for the better and rethink our relationship with the more-than-human world. We are here to make you wonder, to inform, to spark resistance and to nurture fresh talent.

Sprouts Film Festival 2025 will take place from 14 - 20 April. Follow us on ︎ @sproutsfilmfestival. Our program is year round. Click here to see our upcoming events or sign up to our newsletter.
