The Rubbish Film Festival continues to grow as a space where students can explore real-world issues through film. From tackling waste to rethinking everyday habits, their projects show just how impactful creative thinking can be.

Being featured on a national programme like news2day is a testament to the impact of the festival and the voices behind it. These young filmmakers are not only developing their creative skills – they’re helping to shape the conversation around our planet’s future nationally.
