Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival 2022

The twelfth edition of Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival will take place 28 April – 2 May
2022. Alchemy Film & Arts’ flagship event is dedicated to experimental film and artists’ moving
image. We screen experimental shorts and feature-length works in cinemas and other spaces in
Hawick, and host expanded cinema performances, discussion events, multi-channel
installations, walks and other group activities. We are proud of the warmth, hospitality and
professionalism with which we host artists and filmmakers in our Scottish Borders town of
14,000 people, and of the high technical standards with which we screen their work in an
inclusive, intimate setting. Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival has received praise for its
curation, care, and critical contributions to the field of experimental film and artists’ moving
image in international publications including Art Monthly, ArtReview, MAP Magazine, Sight &
Sound, and the Skinny.
