The Folk Film Gathering is the world’s first folk film festival, screening films that celebrate the lived experiences of communities worldwide.
Curated by Transgressive North, each annual edition explores the relationships between cinema and other traditional arts (such as oral storytelling and folk song), discovering what a folk cinema has been at moments throughout world film history, and how it may look in the future.
