Borderlines Film Festival 2025 - The Courtyard

Borderlines Film Festival is the UK’s largest rural film festival, with close to 300 screenings of the best new international and British cinema. You’ll see a lot of films that are tricky to catch anywhere outside major cities, including rare or classic gems.

Borderlines is a joyous mix of an event that offers a 16-day immersion in cinema. It stretches over Herefordshire and Shropshire, down the border with Wales, with a foothold to the east at Great Malvern. 

Base yourself in Herefordshire to feast on the programme, discover charming venues in gorgeous places, be part of a friendly audience and sample seasonal local food and drink in amongst film screenings.

Through its partner venues and the amazing network of village halls and community centres that is Flicks in the Sticks, Borderlines takes cinema out to widespread audiences and brings individuals together to enjoy great films at their best - on the big screen.
