A revitalised Edinburgh International Film Festival (EIFF) will inaugurate a competition for its 77th edition, which will run from August 15 to August 21, 2024.

Under new leadership and with an invigorated vision, EIFF is poised to accelerate the discovery of new talent through significant prize-money awarded to the filmmakers of the Best Feature Film in Competition and the Best Short Film.

Ten features and ten shorts – all world premieres - will compete for industry-leading cash prizes, supported by partnerships to be revealed at the Berlinale in February.
