Image Credit: The Golden Squacco Heron, Edward Smyth, 2025 Join Dreamy Place and Oska Bright Film Festival for a special film screening, featuring five short films inspired by nature and our relationships with the natural world.
Films will be shown at Brighton Unitarian Church on New Road – we’ve moved the film programme indoors due to the weather… Nature!
From underwater worlds and ancient standing stones to folklore and a search for an elusive bird, the programme brings together distinctive films exploring landscape, wildlife and our connections with the environment.
The films are selected from Nature, a strand of Oska Bright Film Festival 2026. Oska Bright is the world’s leading film festival for films made by or featuring learning disabled and autistic people.
Venue: Brighton Unitarian Church, New Road, Brighton BN1 1UF
This programme is supported by Plus Accounting.
