MINT CHINESE FILM FESTIVAL

Mint Chinese Film Festival (MINT CFF) is an award-winning social enterprise and festival founded by Chinese film curator Yixiang Shirley Lin and Keswick Alhambra Cinema’s co-owner Dr Carol Rennie. We are the first women-organised Chinese film festival in the UK focussed on cross-cultural communication and the representation of women supporting Chinese creators, women/non-binary filmmakers and artists, as well as those from other underrepresented groups.We hold an annual film festival in the North England's lake district, around Chinese New Year, and together with a large network of contacts and volunteers curate and organise screenings, film releases, touring projects, and other cultural and artistic events across the UK and abroad. Our year-round activities have attracted over 10,000 attendees in the UK, with 75% identifying as Chinese or ESEA heritage, 70% as female or non-binary, and 16% as LGBTQ+ allies.
