Samizdat Eastern European Film Festival
Named after the practice of clandestine dissemination of censored and forbidden texts in communist states, Samizdat Eastern European Film Festival returns for its 5th edition, bringing an ever-eclectic mix of some of the most exciting, powerful, thoughtful, weird and wonderful filmmaking from Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Caucasus to audiences in Glasgow: with a jam-packed week of events across the Glasgow Film Theatre and Pyramid at Anderston.
Audience Access Fund
At Samizdat, we know that the cost of tickets – as well as things like childcare or travel – can make it harder for some people to attend events. We have the Audience Access Fund to support with such costs, no proof of eligibility required: just email hello@samizdatfest.co.uk.
The 2026 edition of Samizdat is supported by Screen Scotland’s Film Festival and Screening Programme Fund and Film Hub Scotland, part of the BFI’s Film Audience Network, and funded by Screen Scotland and National Lottery funding from the BFI.
