Access isn’t cheap, at around €400, but you will be able to meet the best in the business.

 

 

Alternatively, head to the Sheffield Doc Fest in June, which focuses on documentary films. Full access costs £250, with screenings, workshops and networking events.

It might sound unlikely but Bosnia is also a hot destination for film lovers. The Sarajevo International Film Festival takes place in August, and welcomes the film industry to the largest Muslim community in Europe.

 

Over in Spain, you can get your film fix at the San Sebastian International Film Festival in September.
