Filmhouse

Filmhouse is a proudly independent, non-profit cinema and registered charity in the heart of Edinburgh, committed to screening the full diversity of cinema from across the globe. A cornerstone of Scotland’s film landscape since 1979, Filmhouse has championed some of the UK’s most diverse and radical film programming for over four decades and was the home for the Edinburgh International Film Festival.

In 2022, the collapse of Filmhouse’s parent company, CMI, forced the cinema’s closure. But, following a three-year long campaign supported by dedicated Filmhouse audiences, Filmhouse reopened as a fully refurbished four screen cinema in June 2025. Today, it is a place where all are welcome, and where people from a multitude of backgrounds, young and old, come together to make new connections through a shared love of film.
