EIUFF: States of Mind

(Sat 31 May: 2:30pm)

A journey through the shifting currents of thought, memory, and emotion, this programme traces the delicate contours of our inner lives. Blending documentary, dreamscape, and poetic collage, these films drift between waking worlds and subconscious depths, where trauma lingers, resilience stirs, and identity takes uncertain shape. Through fragments, whispers, and bold expressions, we witness the invisible architectures of the self—fluid, fractured, and fiercely alive. Each film is a window into minds in motion, extending a hand to be discovered.

Several short films will be screened as part of this programme, followed by a Q&A.

The Edinburgh International University Film Festival (EIUFF), launching in 2025, is driven by a mission to champion and support the creative talents of university students across the UK. By collaborating with SYFF, they aim to nurture aspiring filmmakers through community engagement and financial backing. Their vision is to position EIUFF as the premier platform for student filmmakers to showcase their work, gain industry exposure and build meaningful connections. They strive to bridge the gap between education and the professional film world, empowering the next generation of storytellers to thrive.
