Georgina Harris 1B Student at The University of Edinburgh (Volunteer during the ESFF)
I’m really glad that I got the opportunity to volunteer at ESFF as it really opened my eyes as to how large and active the Spanish community in Edinburgh is, which is extremely beneficial for a student like me who is studying Spanish and hoping to improve my language skills. I also was lucky enough to watch a few of the films that were being shown, which I really enjoyed and I think that the range of films being shown demonstrated how diverse Hispanic cinema is. The ESFF was definitely a success from my point of view as I was surprised at just how many people attended, and many asked me whether it would be repeated again any time soon. Also, I really think that it definitely increased the people of Edinburgh’s awareness and interest in Spanish film, and I’m glad to have been able to help out”.
