14th Edition
The Science Film Festival in Malaysia took place from October 1 to December 20 in a hybrid format. The festival officially opened on November 7 in Sabah at Kinabalu International School, where over 250 students from local international schools and twenty-five teachers from government schools nationwide participated.

The opening ceremony, co-organized by the Kota Kinabalu Performing Arts Society (SPARKS), featured Jude Day, the festival director of the Kota Kinabalu International Film Festival (KKIFF), as the guest of honor. A representative from Rolls-Royce, a key partner of the Science Film Festival in Southeast Asia, also attended the opening ceremony, highlighting the importance of their support for this initiative.

In collaboration with Haus KCH and PASCH, the Science Film Festival was a key component of the Seni Kita Festival in Kuching, held from December 13 to 15 at the Sarawak State Museum. Over five hundred visitors attended the public film screenings during the three-day festival. This strategic engagement of the Science Film Festival in Sabah and Sarawak demonstrated the festival's commitment to East Malaysia by fostering new partnerships with local stakeholders, engaging with diverse audiences, and expanding its reach in these regions.
