Previously

The first L.I.F.T Festival took place in November 2004 and featured three evenings packed full of feature films, short film compilations, community and young people's film projects, speakers from the film industry plus Q&A's, Dr. Who special, 'I Did It' Youth Forum awards and an open submission film hour.

The Festival had an overall theme of learning (Learning & Innovation Film Talent) and this theme will be an ongoing feature of the Festival. It is planned that the Festival is run annually.
