Soho Film Festival is an annual, feature-focused festival taking place in October, dedicated to original filmmaking that honours the great traditions of British and international cinema. While rooted in tradition, Soho Film Festival is not exclusively nostalgic. We actively seek original contemporary films that reinterpret classic cinematic values for modern audiences — works that feel timeless rather than trendy.
We accept short and feature-length films in the following genres only: Comedy, Drama, Romance, Thriller and Fantasy / Sci-Fi. Soho Film Festival is deliberately curated and selective. We view every submission in full and assess it on storytelling, performance, direction, and overall artistic integrity.
If you have won an award, congratulations! We would be absolutely delighted to celebrate your achievement with you. Please note that being included in our Official Selection, while recognising your work as exceptional, does not guarantee its automatic inclusion in our screening program.
We just held our first awards celebration in London on 16th October, and will follow this up with more screening and celebration events in the coming weeks.
We would love you to join us if you are able to attend. Please get in touch with us if you have won and would like to come along and celebrate your work with the Soho Film Awards community.
If you would also like to display our laurels or order a lasting physical memento of your achievement, please contact our preferred supplier to commission a personalised Soho Film Awards trophy commemorating your victory. Each trophy can be personalised to mark your specific award and film, creating a unique keepsake of your success at the festival.
Once again, thank you for sharing your work with us, and congratulations to all of our winners and filmmakers.
With warm regards,
SohoFilmAwards.com Team
