Edinburgh has a brand new film festival, and it's all about short films. The first Leith Short Film Festival comes to The Pitt in Granton on Saturday 26 September, screening 26 short films from filmmakers around the world. Between screenings there are panel talks with time for your questions, and the day finishes with an awards ceremony and a mixer with live music. Independent food and drink traders keep everyone fed along the way. It's run by festival director Nick Grant and producer Lauryn McCorkell, who wanted a festival where new filmmakers could meet the industry. Tickets are available through Citizen Ticket.
