Since its inauguration in 2003 the festival has prided itself on creating a unique forum of exchange between the public and the filmmaking community through hosting a whole range of events that allow the public to interact with filmmakers in the form of public interviews, panel discussions and Q&A sessions. Over the years an array of film talent has joined in with the celebration including Ed Harris, Jessica Lange, Ralph Fiennes, Fiona Shaw, Al Pacino, Glenn Close, Martin Sheen, Mark Wahlberg, Michael Madsen, Daniel Day Lewis, Gabriel Byrne, Jim Sheridan, Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Charlize Theron, Colin Firth and Liam Neeson, among others, all of whom have graced the DIFF red carpet.
