About the festival

Disappear Here Film Festival 2021

The Disappear Here Film Festival now in its fifth year, returns to Ballyliffin village from September 24th-26th 2021. This increasingly popular 3 day event celebrates independent film-making from all corners of the country & across the world, and has developed into a thought provoking & diverse showcase of all the industry has to offer.

Festival highlights include screenings, industry workshops and masterclasses, children films and lively post-screening interviews and debates.

The Disappear Here Film Festival will take place in a series of unique locations on the Wild Atlantic Way, in and around the picturesque village of Ballyliffin, Co Donegal. From short animated films for kids, to scary midnight movies for the young at heart - The Disappear Here Film Festival promises you a weekend of entertainment, utterly unmissable and unforgettable. The Festival will have a high concentration of shorts but includes an outstanding mix of features and documentaries, music videos and animations.

Over the weekend films will be screened in specially constructed cinemas in the village of Ballyliffin.

Our versatile programme will include screenings, talks, educational workshops and a host of entertainment events through which we will provide a unique festival experience.

There will be a variety of awards for selected films across the weekend, including Best short, Best Music Video, Best Actor and Best Student Film. In 2018, we added two new award categories, namely our Environmental Awareness Award that rewards films that raise awareness of sustainability & preservation of our planet/environment. The second is our Human Rights & Social Change Award, for films that highlight issues from International human rights abuses, to advancing equality and social acceptance for the LGBT community.
The Disappear Here Film Festival will make the following awards:

• Best Live Action Short Film (Ireland)
• Best Live Action Short Film (International)
• Best Music Video
• Best Student Film
• Best Documentary
• Best Actor
• The Northern Exposure Award (For emerging Filmmakers*)
• Environmental Awareness Award
• Human Rights & Social Change Award

*We will offer a EUR 500.00 Bursary to a selected new emerging talent.
