Our mission is to make this festival a unique, groundbreaking, inclusive and an inspiring event for up-­and-­coming and established filmmakers. We will establish ourselves as the place to see new Irish and international films that push boundaries and give new perspectives on imagination and a vision of the world. Our vision is of showing film on the edge, shown at the edge of Europe.Featuring a selected celebrity curator with an in-­depth knowledge of film every year, the New Dingle International Film Festival will be a leading light in its ever-­evolving approach to new movies. It will also be a nurturing ground for new filmmakers who will come for its high-­profile Master classes and its engaging programme of high calibre films.Our approach is to create an identifiable brand that will make the New Dingle International Film Festival a must attend event for a broad and diverse audience. There will be formidable local collaboration and contribution to the content of the programme, which will include Irish language features. Every year a film will be made in collaboration with the Kerry Film and TV Production Course that involves members of the community and is mentored by professionals within the community.Every year a film will be made in collaboration with the Kerry Film and TV Production Course that involves members of the community and is mentored by professionals within the community.
