Organisation Profile | Filmhouse


Since its inception Filmhouse has been the home of the Edinburgh International Film Festival and has been host to many film luminaries such as Martin Scorsese, Andrei Tarkovsky, Sean Connery and James Mason.

The present cinema has 3 screens which are open to the public seven days a week. Cinema One screens the latest international releases and presents special events with guests talking about their work in different branches of the film industry. Cinemas Two and Three include a wider range of material from the history of world cinema, 16mm, video and digital video work. The result is that Filmhouse presents a more varied programme than any other cinema in the country.
