Dyma i chi gyfrif uniongyrchol hynod gignoeth o’r rhyfel diwethaf yn Gaza. Wrth i’r rhyfel gychwyn mae Mohamed Jabaly yn casglu ei gamera ac yn ymuno â chriw ambiwlans.

Yn fesmereiddiol ac yn atgofus, mae’r ffilm hon yn ymblethu sawl stori ynghyd i archwilio etifeddiaeth gormes wleidyddol Gwlad y Thai, wrth roi cipolwg cyffrous o bosibiliadau di-ri sinema.

Mae CASA Media yn cyflwyno 3 ffilm fer gwych, sydd wedi cael eu creu gyda cymorth pobl ifanc yng Nghorllewin Cymru a Zanzibar a sydd wedi cael eu ariannu gan Hub Cymru Africa ac y Lywodraeth Gymraeg. Mae plant o’r dwy wlad wedi cymryd rhan mewn gweithdai sy’n ymwneud a newid hinsawdda cynaladwyaeth, yn ogystal i sesiynau creu ffilm.

Wedi ei gosod yn gyfan gwbl yng nghefn tryc yr heddlu, mae’r ffilm hon, sydd wedi ei saernïo’n wych, yn paentio darlun diddorol iawn o’r Aifft gyfoes.

After a sell out screening at Buteown Community Centre in June, we're excited to be returning in October for Black History Month, with a women-only screening of the acclaimed DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST. This film was the first to be made by a Black woman in America, and the inspiration behind Beyonce’s ‘Lemonade.'

Set in 1902, it looks at the lives of three generations of Gullah Geechee women as they prepare to leave their home on the shores of Carolina. The ‘Gullah’, as they are known, are descendants of enslaved people, whose rich language and culture is composed of different West African origins which has survived centuries. Criticially praised for its rich language, use of song, and visual imagery, this is a Black feminist classic, not to be missed.

To kick off the screening, we'll be showing short extracts from Beyonce's critially acclaimed 'Lemonde' which took drew inspiration from Daughters of the Dust.

And we invite all women, as always, to come and join us for what promises to be an inspiring event, with refreshments and discussion.

Gentle/Radical and WOW Film Club are delighted to host their first ‘people’s symposium', bringing together archival films, invited speakers and panel discussion around two key footnotes in British colonial history: the Partition of India in 1947, and the Palestinian 'Nakba' ('Catastrophe') of 1948.

2017 marks the 70th anniversary of Indian Independence, and the 100th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration. On the afternoon of Remembrance Sunday, this symposium invites you to remember less visible tragedies in our colonial history, as they relate to South Asia and the Middle East.

As fiercely talented as he was modest, in 1962 Finnish boxer Olli Mäki swept into national stardom as he trained for a once-in-a-lifetime fight against the World Featherweight Champion. There was only one problem: he had just fallen in love. Inside of the ring, it was Finland vs. the USA, but outside, it was boxing vs. romance.

Based on this true story, Juho Kuosmanen's charming debut feature, The Happiest Day in the Life of Olli Mäki, was awarded the Un Certain Regard Prize at the Cannes Film Festival last year. Here Juho reveals why he found Olli Mäki's story so compelling.

Rita Arqueros and Amanda Racktraw read Pablo Neruda's Keeping Quiet at Chapter on our opening evening of WOW Film Festival 2017. 

Ranked among the top 10 hidden gems of 2016, film critic Jonathon Romney described The Future Perfect as "A smart, undemonstrative but deeply joyful Argentinian first feature... about a young Chinese woman (Zhang Xiaobin) newly arrived in Buenos Aires and her attempts to learn Spanish. Formally economical, rich in insights about language, culture and the self, and deliciously comic with it."

Yn eofn, yn ddewr ac yn wych, mae’r ffilm ddoeth, drist a doniol hon yn cipio Ciwba ar adeg hanfodol yn ei hanes. Mae ei wraig wedi ei adael, ei gariad wedi ei wrthod ac mae’n amheugar am addewidion y Ciwba newydd - teimla Sergio yn unig mewn byd newydd dewr, heb allu gadael na chwaith dod i delerau â’r newidiadau’n dilyn y chwyldro.

Mil o flynyddoedd ar ôl y rhyfel mawr, mae jyngl gwenwynig wedi ei warchod gan bryfed enfawr yn bygwth amlyncu’r byd.

Mae Larraín (Jackie, No) yn asio hanes, chwedl a ffuglen yn effeithiol yn y ffilm gyffro a’r ‘gwrth-fywgraffiad’ ditectif eofn, a hynod ddyfeisgar hon.
