Into Film's current ambassadors include British actor Eddie Redmayne, director and actor Sir Kenneth Branagh, who occupies the role of Northern Irish ambassador,Michael Sheen, its Welsh ambassador and Naomie Harris.
The Into Film Festival is the world’s largest youth film festival. It is an annual, three-week programme of over 2700 free cinema screenings, activities and workshops for 5-19 year-olds held in venues across England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man.
The Into Film Awards are an annual awards ceremony, which launched in 2015 and highlight the work of young filmmakers in the UK. The 2016 Into Film Awards took place on 15 March at Odeon Leicester Square.
