Oska Bright Film Festival

Founded in 2004, the Oska Bright Film Festival (OBFF) was founded by a group of learning disabled artists involved with the nonprofit organization Carousel who were frustrated by the lack of representation and opportunities for publicly screening their film work.^[3][4] The festival continues to be affiliated with and receive financial support from Carousel.^[5]

In 2019, Oska Bright was recognized as a BAFTA-qualifying festival and has been added to Section B of the BAFTA Qualifying Festivals List for both the British Short Film Award and the British Short Animation Award.^[6][7]
