We’re very pleased to announce the programme for this year’s Pilton Palais Cinema Tent (which you’ll find in the Acoustic Field). It’s a top notch line-up of films, which includes no fewer than three advance preview screenings of films which don’t get officially released until after the Festival.

A first for this year is that all films are DCP’s (Digital Cinema Packages’s) which is rapidly becoming the standard format for commercial cinemas, with more than four times the resolution of DVDs. This also enables the tent to show 3D and they have six of the most popular 3D titles from the last 12 months, plus a hugely anticipated surprise 3D film on Sunday. The sound system is also set up for Dolby 7.1 channel sound.
