I Will Tell is an international film festival of light, love and hope. We gather powerful stories of transformation, and tales of unlikely heroes overcoming adversity, from more than fifty countries around the world. Our festivals in the UK, US and the Caribbean premiere high quality feature dramas, documentaries, animations, short films, experimental film and sci-fi made by a huge range of independent film makers. The films contribute to a more complete global narrative, challenging perspectives and inspiring and motivating in ways that are truly transformative. Each screening is followed by an inspirational post-screening discussion and debate with filmmakers, community leaders, country ambassadors, subject matter experts and an engaged, culturally diverse and conscious public.  Our hope is that no one leaves the festival unchanged.
