The Glasgow Short Film Festival (GSFF) launched yesterday and is packed with another year of groundbreaking films. We spoke to Felipe Bustos Sierra, BAFTA-winner to learn more about his latest offering at the festival; Govanhill: A Community Film Portrait

Two local writers shared their pen-scribbles on what the area means to them, in specially commissioned pieces for Greater Govanhill’s Arts, Culture & Subculture issue. This is Peter Mohan’s, Govanhill Just Won’t Stop.

Govanhill is full of clubs and social nights as diverse and vibrant as its residents. Many of these clubs, despite their tendency to fly under most people’s radar, run frequently and are quite popular among residents. We decided to head out and meet with some of these groups to find out more.

“If you’re the only one making this unusual thing then there is a draw; no one else seems to be doing what we’re doing. You know, I think there are only really a handful of people in Japan that can make this thing.” - Lewis Harvey, MIRRL.
