This year also sees the return of the festival's popular events strand, which gives attendees the opportunity to enjoy immersive experiences and go on cinematic adventures together - and, of course, there's the ever-popular Glasgow Frightfest strand, which gives Scottish viewers the chance to see some of the world's scariest new offerings.
Special guests include Viggo Mortensen, who will participate in a special In Conversation event, as well as Emily Hampshire, George Mackay, Ben Wheatley, Rose Glass, Maxine Peake and Kevin Macdonald.
The festival runs from 28 February to 10 March.
