Glasgow Film Festival (GFF) 2024 will open with the UK premiere of Rose Glass’s new thriller Love Lies Bleeding starring Kristen Stewart, and close with the world premiere of Janey, following Scottish stand-up legend Janey Godley as she embarks on her final live tour following her cancer diagnosis.

Across 12 packed days, the programme boasts 11 world and international premieres, 69 UK premieres and 15 Scottish premieres, from 44 countries.

World and international premieres include Tummy Monster, a hallucinogenic dark drama by Glasgow director Ciaran Lyons, starring rising Scottish star Lorn Macdonald; the big screen adaptation of blackly comic novel Bucky F*cking Dent, written by, directed by and starring David Duchovny, and a new restoration of Billy Connolly: Big Banana Feet, the rarely-seen documentary shot during his 1975 tour of Ireland.

UK premieres include real-life father and daughter duo Ewan and Clara McGregor taking a road trip in Bleeding Love, Cynthia Erivo as a Liberian refugee who befriends Alia Shawkat’s American tour guide in Drift, and Viggo Mortensen directing and starring in Western epic The Dead Don’t Hurt.

Scottish audiences will get the first chance to see Kevin Macdonald’s take on the rise and fall of a fashion icon in High and Low: John Galliano, Lea Seydoux and George MacKay in The Beast and Luna Carmoon’s hotly-tipped debut Hoard.

The UK premiere of the fantastical romance La Chimera starring Josh O’Connor will take place at both GFF and nine partner cinemas across the UK.

GFF is one of the leading film festivals in the UK and is run by Glasgow Film, a charity which also runs Glasgow Film Theatre. Glasgow Film Festival is made possible by support from Screen Scotland, the BFI Audience Projects Fund, awarding National Lottery funding and Glasgow Life.

Opening and Closing Gala Premieres

Glasgow Film Festival 2024

GFF24 will open on 28 February with the UK premiere of British director Rose Glass’s hotly-anticipated follow-up to Saint Maud, Love Lies Bleeding. The stylish romantic thriller stars Kristen Stewart as Lou, a reclusive gym owner who falls hard for Jackie (Katy M. O’Brian), an ambitious bodybuilder who's heading to Las Vegas to pursue her dream. Their love soon leads to violence as they get pulled deep into the web of Lou's criminal family.

Glasgow Film Festival 2024

The festival will close on 10 March with the world premiere of Janey, an honest, moving and often hilarious documentary about Glasgow comedian Janey Godley, interweaving stories from her life with footage from her Not Dead Yet tour in the wake of her terminal cancer diagnosis. Janey found fame for her sweary anti-Trump placards, became a social media sensation as she revoiced First Minister Nicola Sturgeon’s Covid briefings, was called out for controversial historic tweets and was trying to rebuild her career when she received her diagnosis. Featuring appearances from familiar faces including Nicola Sturgeon and Jimmy Carr, director John Archer’s feature captures Janey Godley at her most vulnerable and most gallus. Following its world premiere at Glasgow Film Festival, Janey will be released in UK cinemas from 15 March.

World and European Premieres

Glasgow Film Festival 2024

Glasgow audiences will be the very first to see 11 world and international premieres on the big screen.

A Scottish comedy icon makes a welcome return to the big screen with a brand new restoration of the little-seen 1976 documentary Billy Connolly: Big Banana Feet. Lovingly restored by the BFI in collaboration with the film’s director Murray Grigor from the only two 16mm prints known to exist, this comedy charmer follows Billy on his legendary 1975 tour of Ireland.

Glasgow director Ciaran Lyons makes his feature debut with Tummy Monster, a hallucinogenic Scottish black comedy about a self-centred tattoo artist (rising Scottish star Lorn Macdonald from GFF19 closing film Beats) who gets embroiled in a bizarre psychological battle with an international popstar.

Other highlights include David Duchovny adapting and starring in the big screen adaptation of his comic novel Bucky F*ing Dent, about a baseball-mad dad whose terminal cancer diagnosis leads him to be reunited with his estranged son; Edge of Summer, the feature debut from Grierson Award-winning British director Lucy Cohen, about a mother-and-daughter holiday to Cornwall that takes a dark turn after a discovery in a tin mine changes everything; GFF favourite, Canadian actor-writer Jonas Chernick with The Burning Season, a love story told in reverse; and the chance to get an exclusive first look at the entire second season of the award-winning Helensburgh-shot queer BBC Scotland drama Float, written by acclaimed playwright Stef Smith and starring Hannah Jarett Scott and Jessica Hardwick, before it hits TV screens later this year.

From the chic and startling French 16mm vampire spinetingler The Vordalak to the Stranger Things meets The Goonies charm of Riddle of Fire, a neo-fairytale about three Wyoming kids embarking on an epic errand, GFF brings a world of new cinema to Glasgow.

Fresh UK talent also shines with nail-biting police thriller Jericho Ridge, the directorial debut from Will Gilbey starring Nikki Amuka-Bird (Knock at the Cabin) as a small-town sheriff under siege and The Old Man and The Land, Nicholas Parish’s moving and inventive debut following an elderly man working alone to maintain his ancestral farmland, as his heard but never seen children (played by Rory Kinnear and Emily Beecham) prove to be both remote and controlling.

Urgent true stories getting their UK premiere at the festival include Caroline Suh and Cara Mones’ Sorry/Not Sorry, following the sexual misconduct allegations made against Louis C.K. and the effects his comeback has on those who came forward.

Behind the camera talent take their moment in the spotlight with Made in England: The Films of Powell and Pressburger, a personal and moving look at two of British cinemas greatest filmmakers, narrated by Martin Scorsese; and Frank Capra: Mr America, the story of how a young immigrant rose through the ranks of early Hollywood to become one of the Great American storytellers.

GFF is also delighted to bring its unique festival magic to nine partner cinemas across the UK with the UK premiere of Alice Rohrwacher’s fantastical, genre-defying gravedigging romantic musical La Chimera starring Josh O’Connor which will screen both at the festival and in cinemas including Barbican and BFI Southbank in London, Chapter in Cardiff, Tyneside in Newcastle, Watershed in Bristol, Broadway in Nottingham, Showroom in Sheffield, DCA in Dundee and Eden Court in Inverness.

FrightFest

We are delighted to welcome back FrightFest for its 19th year at GFF, as they take over GFT’s Cinema 1 from 7th to 9th March. The legendary three-day horror binge showcases 11 new feature films from eight countries, spanning three continents and embracing two world premieres, eight UK premieres and one Scottish premiere. World premieres include Mom, a striking, provocative and consuming psychological horror starring Schitt’s Creek Emily Hampshire; and Custom, a paranoid horror thriller from award-winning, Brazilian-born and UK-based filmmaker Tiago Teixeira.

FrightFest kicks off with UK Premiere You’ll Never Find Me, a claustrophobic two-hander set in an Australian RV Park starring Brendan Rock as a lonely man and Jordan Cowan as a mysterious woman who knocks at his door late one night, and wraps up with the UK premiere of hard-hitting diner-invasion thriller Last Straw, marking Alan Scott Neal’s directorial debut.

Other highlights include All You Need is Death, with Irish writer-director Paul Duane drawing from the earlier works of Ben Wheatley and Peter Strickland and delves into ethno-musicology in this unique, unsettling cautionary folk horror; Kill Your Lover, an uncompromising and wild body horror from debut co-directors Alix Austin and Keir Siewert; The Deep Dark, from Mahieu Turi (Hostile), following a veteran miner and a professor who find themselves underground and up against an ancient mutant that craves blood; Mike Hermosa’s riotous monster comedy The Invisible Raptor featuring an invisible genetically-engineered prehistoric raptor on the loose; and the safety of a community left in the hands of a palaeontologist and security guard. Wake Up, a fresh take on the slasher genre where classic adrenaline-fueled horror and Gen Z environmental issues collide in one twisted night from hell, comes courtesy of RKSS (the directorial collective behind Turbo Kid and Summer of ’84); and Federico Zampaglione’s (Shadow, Tulpa: Demon of Desire) The Well, is an extreme supernatural chiller starring Lauren LaVera, fresh from her eye-catching lead in the Terrifier 2.

Alongside the main programme, FrightFest will present World premieres of two shorts from up-and-coming Scottish filmmakers: Mouse, a pin-sharp stalker thriller from Ewan J Fletcher, and Subject 73 a twisty morality tale from Reiff Gaskell.

2024 Country Focus: Czech, Please!

Glasgow Film Festival 2024

Each year the festival shines a light on global cinema, exploring contemporary and re-discovered film and this year the festival’s Country Focus shines on Czechia (also known as Czech Republic). Czech, please! includes Daisies, a radical feminist film from Věra Chytilová once banned for its stance on communism and patriarchy. Is There Any Place For Me, Please? is a debut feature documentary and UK premiere from Jarmila Štuková which showcases an intimate portrayal of one woman navigating life after an acid attack. Other premieres include dystopian sci-fi Restore Point and chilling crime thriller Mr. and Mrs. Stodola. Timely period drama We Have Never Been Modern will inspect gender politics, martial constraints and self-identity. Brothers, Czechia’s official submission to the 2024 Academy Awards for the Best International Film, examines liberation and resilience in a story focused on an anti-Communist resistance group.

Retrospectives

Glasgow Film Festival 2024

Glasgow Film will celebrate three major anniversaries this year - 85 years since the opening of Scotland’s first-ever purpose-built arthouse cinema, ‘Cosmo’, on Rose Street in Glasgow in 1939; 50 years since that cinema became Glasgow Film Theatre in 1974; and the 20th edition of Glasgow Film Festival which was launched in 2005.

GFF is delighted that its hugely popular free morning retrospective will return for 2024 with Our Story So Far, a journey through time with 10 classic titles from each anniversary in Glasgow Film’s history. These widely popular morning screenings are free to attend and give audiences the rare opportunity to catch a season of undisputed classics on the big screen. From 1939, enjoy GFT favourite James Stewart in Frank Capra’s irresistible ode to political idealism Mr Smith Goes to Washington; screen icon Greta Garbo getting the rare chance to flex her comedy chops in rom-com Ninotchka; Cary Grant leading a team of daredevil pilots risking their lives to deliver the mail in mountainous South America in Only Angels Have Wings; and Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon wandering the moors in Wuthering Heights. From 1974 there’s the second instalment of Francis Ford Coppola’s seminal gangster epic The Godfather Part II; Gene Wilder and a scene-stealing Marty Feldman in Mel Brooks’ endlessly quotable comedy classic Young Frankenstein; and the sensational Pam Grier as a vigilante out for justice in Foxy Brown. Finally, it’s the return to the big screen of some recent classics from 2005 with Rian ‘Knives Out’ Johnson’s directorial debut Brick, an endlessly-inventive high school neo-noir; Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon as Johnny and June Carter Cash in Walk the Line; and Viggo Mortensen as a seemingly mild-mannered family man forced into extreme acts in David Cronenberg’s A History of Violence, showing on 35mm. The morning retrospectives are free and un-ticketed, so audiences are invited along to GFT at 10.30am each day of the festival. To continue the great tradition of former GFF co-director Allan Hunter’s legendary introductions to the morning retrospectives, rich in history and insight, GFF has commissioned ten young up-and-coming writers to write an introduction to each of the films, contextualising them in new ways. These intros will be published in a booklet given out free at the festival, with an intro written by Allan.

GFF24 also marks the return of the festival’s beloved special event screenings.

Movie fans can click their ruby red slippers together three times to be transported to a magical screening of Victor Fleming’s 1939 technicolour masterpiece The Wizard of Oz at Cottiers Theatre in Glasgow’s West End. For a very different camp classic, there’s a grotesquely glamorous tribute screening to schlock auteur John Waters’ 1974 magnum opus Female Trouble, complete with a live drag show, at Barras Art and Design.

Other classics returning to the big screen include the UK premiers of new 4K restorations of Glasgow-born Lynne Ramsay’s incendiary debut Ratcatcher and Martin Scorsese’s screwball caper After Hours, plus Danny Boyle’s Glasgow-shot Shallow Grave, and Quentin Tarantino’s game-changing sophomore feature Pulp Fiction in 35mm.

GFF teams up with Scotland’s activist archive Invisible Women to celebrate the 50-year career of pioneering actor Dolores del Río, who became both a defining performer of the Mexican Golden Age and one of the first Latin American stars to crossover into Hollywood with Wild Flower, Flaming Star: The Films of Dolores Del Rio. GFF audiences can witness her electrifying star power on the big screen with special screenings of La Otra, the sordid tale of a woman who kills her twin sister to assume her identity; Mexican romance Maria Candelaria with del Rio as a peasant woman who poses for the same artist who doomed her mother with a nude portrait; Texas western Flaming Star co-starring Elvis Presley; pre-Code RKO musical Flying Down To Rio, which also features the first on-screen pairing of Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire.

What Will The Men Wear? explores the star power of three of Hollywood’s most subversive female stars of the 1930s: Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich and Katharine Hepburn. Notorious for sporting ‘men’s’ clothing on and off film sets and challenging gender norms, all three women have their place in Hollywood’s queer canon. Screenings of Morocco, Queen Christina and The Philadelphia Story showcase these stars at their most daring and chic.

Love is sweet oh! is a specially-curated programme examining on-screen representations of love in the lives of Black people and people of colour and how, for these communities, this experience should be celebrated in the public space of the cinema. In Bend It Like Beckham, Love Jones and Happy Together, love is an act of resistance, a space to be seen and heard like never before.

Gestures of Memory: After the Archive is a series of screenings which interrogate and re-imagine archival practice including The Cemetery of Cinema, filmmaker Thierno Souleymane Diallo’s journey to understand the production behind Mouramani (1953), the first film made in Guinea and French-speaking Africa and locate a copy of its print, and R21 AKA Restoring Solidarity, Mohanad Yaqubi’s experimental documentary about resistance across geographies, inspired by his receipt of a mysterious package containing twenty lost 16mm films collected by Japanese activists who were part of the country’s solidarity movement with Palestine.

This year’s festival will introduce GFF After Hours, a curated programme of events for festival goers and delegates to relax, chat about films and enjoy the festival out with the theatre. The full After Hours programme will be announced next month.

Tickets to Opening and Closing Galas go on sale at 11am on Thursday 25 January; tickets to all events go on sale to GFT Cinecard holders at 11am on Friday 26 January and on general sale at 11am on Monday 29 January at www.glasgowfilm.org/home and from the GFT Box Office.
