Matthew Turner
Season 4 Winner
After a hiatus due to Covid, we came back stronger than ever for our fourth season, receiving an outstanding selection of submissions. This year, we also introduced an exciting new showcase in Los Angeles. Our season culminated in an unforgettable awards ceremony on February 18, 2024, in Soho, London, where we crowned Matthew Turner as our winner for his film Amuse-Bouche. Currently, Matthew is in discussions with the TFF team about bringing his feature film to life—an exciting next step following his well-deserved win.
