About Raindance Film Festival
Raindance is the UK’s largest independent film festival, showcasing shorts and features from around the world and specialising in directorial debuts. Distinguishing itself from other festivals with its rock and roll attitude, Raindance runs riot in the West End of London each October.
As well as showing independent films from around the world, it hosts a number of special events, 25 in 12 days last year, including masterclasses, Q&A sessions with industry professionals, its renowned pitching event Live!Ammunition! where you could end up selling your idea to a movie exec, one-off versions of the courses they run year-long, and, of course, parties.
In 1993, its first year, Raindance hosted 22 features and 65 short films, and attracted 1,300 attendees. For closing night they screened What’s Eating Gilbert Grape? starring Johnny Depp and featuring the film debut of a 14-year-old Leonardo Dicaprio.
In the following years Raindance premiered, among others, Pulp Fiction, The Blair Witch Project and Memento. In 2007, the festival showcased over 75 features and 160 shorts from over 40 countries, and in excess of 10,000 people attended.
