The Guth Gafa International Documentary Film Festival is Ireland’s most Northerly annual film festival, taking place in Headfort House in Kells, Co. Meath, Ireland. For one weekend Headfort House is turned into an intimate but intense melting pot of documentary film, lively debate and exceptional entertainment. A festival like no other, Guth Gafa offers film makers and film lovers alike state of the art cinemas, outdoor screenings and bean bag cinemas, workshops, music, entertainment and wonderful food and wine in the Donegal sunshine.
