Watch-Africa Cymru

Watch-Africa Cymru is Wales’ annual African film festival, celebrating the best of African cinema. Launched in 2013, the festival provides a platform for African films, art and culture in Wales. It brings a wide range of films covering areas across the continent, as well as engaging and interactive activities and events related to the festival. It provides a platform for works by African, African diasporas as well as Welsh and international directors and artists which bring fresh perspectives on Africa to its economic, social, political and cultural life.

The 9th year of Watch-Africa Cymru brought an exciting programme in February 2021, allowing audiences an African experience from the comfort of their home. 'Bringing Africa to Wales' showcased 10 titles, live Q&As and some accompanying workshops that include themes of identity, comedy, folklore, music, and much more.
