Closure
Due to financial constraints, a decision was made to not hold the festival in 2009.
In April 2010 the festival was closed down for good. A statement on the festival's website read:
- "We are extremely sorry to announce that S2F2 has now ceased to operate and can no longer accept films at neither this time nor the foreseeable future!
- We have striven hard during this past year, to overcome numerous difficulties, in order to once again be in a position to offer the North West one of the best Film Festivals of recent years. Alas it has not proved possible and we are forced to close S2F2 down."
