THE Ocean Film Festival will visit two Scottish venues as part of its world tour.
Originating in Australia, organisers are describing the fifth annual festival as “the biggest yet.”
The Ocean Film Festival UK Tour will screen over two hours of ocean based films created by independent film makers from across the globe.
The festival includes a unique selection of short films from giant wave surfers to the perils of marine pollution and aims to inspire and educate people to explore, respect, enjoy and protect the world’s oceans.
The festival will tour the UK in Autumn 2018, showing at Eden Court Theatre in Inverness on 14 September and Festival Theatre in Edinburgh on 15 September.
