This year the National Library of Wales’ Screen and Sound Archive (NLWSSA) curated two compilations of archive shorts for Sinemaes at the National Eisteddfod. The films which range in date from 1927 – 1987, show life in communities across Pen Llŷn and Eifionydd in North Wales. 

The compilations are comprised of clips from the titles listed below edited together with music. Both packages are available to Film Hub Wales members to book, with funding available to support screening costs.

If you are interested in booking these as stand-alone, as a special event, or to programme alongside features, we can help with programme costs of running these. You can apply for up to £1000 if you have a special programme in mind but we expect to be able to offer grants of £500 to multiple venues.

Examples of costs we can cover include:

  • Marketing,
  • Community outreach,
  • Added value (Q&A, workshop costs),
  • Audience evaluation,
  • Staffing,
  • Film costs (please feel free to include an estimated booking fee until we can confirm the cost).

All you need to do is get in touch by email to lisa@filmhubwales.org (you can programme them up to March 31st 2024) and tell us the following:

  • Your proposed screening/event date(s),
  • Projected audience numbers,
  • Any special event plans,
  • How you will market the screening(s),
  • Costs you need help with (please include amounts),
  • What match you can offer (box office/in-kind time etc). 20-50% guideline.
