Made in Wales Funding - Film Hub Wales

More People, More Places, More Films

We offer a range of activities each year to enable more people to watch more films with Welsh connections.

If you want to develop audiences for Welsh features or shorts at your cinema, you can make an application to our Film Exhibition Fund (FEF) or FEF Pitch Pot.

We believe that it’s important to celebrate Wales, from emerging talent to pioneering filmmakers, locations to languages, histories and untold narratives.

Since 2013, we’ve supported over 235 films with Welsh connections. We offer a range of activities from preview days to online screeners and a growing catalogue of bookable titles.

We also work with wider Welsh screen organisations to boost profile for Welsh film collectively, reaching new audiences.
