Hello Voornaam,

Edinburgh International Film Festival: First funding secured to help revive 75-year-old event

Funding has been secured to bring the Edinburgh International Film Festival back to life.

Government agency Creative Scotland has confirmed it has secured the rights to bring the event back under its previous guise.

Creative Scotland and sister organisation Screen Scotland have been involved in rescue talks since arts charity Centre for the Moving Image, which ran the EIFF and the Filmhouse cinemas in Edinburgh and Aberdeen, was plunged into administration in early October with the sudden loss of 107 jobs.
