We celebrates the work of our fantastic young filmmakers, teaching staff and Academy Principals from around the UK. The global circumstances have not deterred our epic young filmmakers from producing some magnificent work during lockdowns at home and during remote PQA sessions. Some of this work is showcased here, along with the very best films produced in the second half of 2019 and 2020 at our Academies.
We encourage students and their families to reach for the popcorn and snacks, make yourselves comfortable, and enjoy the feature length screenings of highly imaginative short films made by PQA Students from all over the UK.
The PQA Virtual Film Festival screenings will take place live on YouTube, and have been curated for your enjoyment. The Festival premiers can be found on the PQATV YouTube Virtual Film Festival Playlist and by using the links below. Programme information can be found for each screening by scrolling down this page. We hope you enjoy the screenings!
