British Film Festival

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.

British Film Festival, 10th Anniversary Edition

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.
