The International Film Festival Glasgow is gearing up for its 12th edition, which will take place from November 12-16, 2025. The festival has unveiled an eclectic lineup of films, kicking off with Richard Linklater's Blue Moon, starring Ethan Hawke and Andrew Scott. The festival will conclude with the screening of Joachim Trier's Cannes Grand Prix winner Sentimental Value, featuring Stellan Skarsgård, Elle Fanning, and Renate Reinsve.
One of the festival's highlights will be a documentary tribute to the iconic but short-lived Scottish punk band The Skids. Titled "The Skids: ReVolution," the film from directors Colin Graham and Laura Graham will explore the band's impact on the Glasgow punk scene in the 1970s. The screening will be followed by a live music performance by local musicians.
Other notable films in the lineup include Stanislav Hristov's The Therapy, Annapurna Srira's surrealist dark comedy-drama Fucktoys, Vasilis Kekatos's Our Wildest Days, and Harry Lighton's Pillion, starring Alexander Skarsgård and Harry Melling.
