Little Dude Films AKA Let’s Do Festivals!

Aug 18, 2025 | News

Little Dude Films has got a very busy couple of weeks coming up, with three film festivals and one premiere to attend on behalf of two of our films in August 2025.

Our very well received short comedy/drama, From Mother, With Love, directed by Gabi Wood, written by Mark A.C. Brown and produced by Ian Beaumont for Little Dude Films is being screened in three prestigious UK festivals this month, all of which we’re planning to attend. These are as follows:

From Mother, With Love is being screened at the Chichester International Film Festival at the Chichester Cinema at New Park on the evening of Wednesday 20th August 2025. The festival is celebrating its 33rd year this year and our film is one of only eleven films selected for their Short Film Showcase;

Our film is also being screened at the Horsham Film Festival at the Everyman Cinema in Horsham on the evening of 29th August 2025. From Mother, With Love has been selected as one of only three films in their Best Comedy category;

Our film is also being screened at the Portobello Film Festival at the Muse Gallery in London, W11, on the evening of 31st August 2025. The Portobello Film Festival is celebrating its thirtieth year this year and Little Dude Films has been lucky enough to win two best drama awards for our short films in the festival in previous years, so fingers crossed for From Mother, With Love.

We are also premiering our short comedy/drama, On Hold, at The Theatreship in Canary Wharf, London, E14 on the evening of Tuesday 26th August 2025. On Hold is written and directed by Chloe Palmer Laporte and produced by Ian Beaumont for Little Dude Films and we are screening it alongside another short film, All the Women You Have Been, by Jessica Holbrook and Stephanie Ritzema. 

Watch this space for updates on how we get on in these and other film festivals.
