In 2019, This Way Up took to Nottingham for the event’s sixth edition, which kicked off with opening sessions reflecting the key themes of the overall conference: Celebration, Resilience and The Future. The conference included sessions with artist and filmmaker Jeanie Finlay, a focus on documentaries with pioneering distributor Dogwoof (followed by a screening of Midnight Traveller (2019)), an in-depth Q&A with Cambridge Film Festival director Tony Jones, marking his retirement, plus reflections on the past year in cinema with film critic Christina Newland.

Further sessions covered marketing to specific audience groups, the whys and hows of organising pop-up and off-site film screenings, intersectionality, environmental sustainability, and more.
