Hello and welcome to the new website of the Lewisham Film Initiative (LFI).

The LFI is dedicated to helping local filmmakers fulfil their potential through production funding, networking events, one-to-one surgeries and screening opportunities. Sign up to our occasional and very interesting newsletter here.

With several new projects including the Capital Fund, the LFI is also expanding its audience development remit by enabling more local residents than ever to watch films at venues across the borough.

And for children and young people interested in watching and making movies, Southern Exposure (PG) is an exciting new opportunity to learn the tricks of the trade during the Cultural Olympiad and run-up to the Olympic Games in 2012.

The LFI was established as a co-venture between Creative Process and Lewisham Council in 2003. For a brief history on the LFI, please go to Background.
