The UK Global Screen Fund (UKGSF) has announced its latest round of awards, including support for Leonardo DiCaprio-produced documentary ‘Monolith,’ which explores Stanley Kubrick’s ‘2001: A Space Odyssey,’ and ‘The Wolf Will Tear Your Immaculate Hands,’ a gothic horror set in 19th-century North America. ‘Monolith,’ directed by Stevan Riley, is a minority UK-US co-production supported with £170,000, while ‘The Wolf Will Tear Your Immaculate Hands,’ directed by Nathalie Álvarez Mesén, is a UK-Sweden-Belgium-Iceland co-production supported with £200,000. The fund's international co-production awards total over £9.6 million supporting 62 projects across 34 territories. Additionally, 36 distribution awards worth £776,772 were granted to promote UK independent films, including £15,000 for the debut of ‘Extra Geography’ at Sundance. The fund’s expansion plans will increase its annual budget from £7 million to £18 million starting in 2026, with further details to be announced early next year. UKGSF is financed by the UK government’s Department for Culture, Media and Sport and managed by the BFI.
