A great launch of Glasgow Film Festival's 20th edition citizenM hotels. Positive vibes, warm conversations with Screen Scotland Black Camel Pictures @HopscotchUK's John Archer, Raisah Ahmed, Ciaran Lyons and many more! Opening gala sold out within 30mins! Let's do this Glasgow!


Feeling grateful to work with The Film and TV Charity on pioneering initiatives against #Islamophobia & #Antisemitism. We're committed to an #inclusive, and equitable industry for all. Touched by our comms team's work on #WorldHijabDay. Hopeful, believing in industry change every day!
