British Film Festival features the best and brightest works in the contemporary British cinematography. We are delighted to offer our audience all possible genres starting with comedy and psychological thriller to documentary drama with all variety of topics: music, social problems, family relations, and, of course, love.
Our yearly British film festival is an extremely effective way of enabling large numbers of predominantly young, intelligent people to regularly refresh their perceptions of the UK.
Enabling festivals to programme new, high-quality work from the UK therefore remains at the heart of our activities.
Our aim is to introduce to the viewer the United Kingdom, the past and the present of the country, the culture, lifestyle and customs, as well as to nurture the knowledge of the English language and creativity through films.
The 10th British Film Festival was held in Yerevan, Vanadzor, Gyumri and Berd from 27 February to 19 March, 2012. This year 14 films were screened, out of which four were dedicated to Charles Dickens's Bicentenary and 10 made the main programme of the festival.
Multi-genre films depicted the everyday life of the British people, their perception of life issues; revealed feelings of the people, who fought for their fate in the modern world. The films were dedicated to 2012 Olympic Games, 200th anniversary of Charles Dickens and Human Rights.
The film “Chariots of Fire” opened the Festival on 10 March at Moscow Cinema. The film is based on a real story and highlights the fight between two athletes in the Olympic Games in 1924.
Prior to main screenings a short British film selection were screened. The entrance was free.
The guest of the festival was Michael Whyte, the Director of the "No Greater Love". He introduced his film on 11 March and run a master class on 12 March in Yerevan State Institute of Theatre and Cinematography. Within the festival from 12 to 16 March the British Council Armenia, British Embassy Yerevan, Caucasus Institute and Ruben Mangasaryan Memorial Foundation organised Documentary Photography Workshop by Patrick Sutherland.
