Screen Scotland, a national funding body, today announced that it has acquired the intellectual property rights to the Edinburgh International Film Festival and has launched an appraisal period to explore the possibilities of hosting a film festival in Edinburgh in 2023.
Kristy Matheson, who led her first Edinburgh Film Festival as Creative Director this past year, is heading the appraisal. In a statement, Screen Scotland said the work will be funded by an award of up to £97,647 from Creative Scotland, which was drawn from the original cash award allocated to the CMI for 2022/23.
Screen Scotland said it picked up the rights to the festival from FRP Advisory, the administrators hired by the Centre for the Moving Image (CMI), the charity that formerly ran the festival.
The statement continued to say that the appraisal period will be completed by the end of Jan 2023 at which point further announcements will be made.
