Chiwetel Ejiofor and Michael Winterbottom will receive icon awards at this year’s Raindance Film Festival held in the UK capital in June. Raindance is the largest Indie film festival in the UK.
“As part of Raindance’s midsummer celebrations, it’s a privilege for us to bask in the radiance that surrounds this year’s Raindance Icon Award recipients,” says Raindance founder Elliot Grove. “Chiwetel Ejiofor and Michael Winterbottom have made important and outstanding contributions to independent cinema, both in front of and behind the camera. We are proud to recognise and honour their achievements with this award.”
Raindance Festival Schedule
To discover what is on at the Raindance Film Festival 2024, which is the 32nd edition, please read the preview at our sister publication London Begins at 40.
If you prefer your films more classical than indie, then read our preview of the Venice International Film Festival.
The festival is a bit of a tongue in cheek reference to the Sundance Film Festival held in Utah, USA each year, and the UK capital’s infamously bad weather.
