Wales
Ryan Andrew Hooper’s The Toll is a Welsh Western that takes its cues from Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven and flips them on their head.
Gwen is an effective and daunting horror that engulfs its audience with perfect production design and cinematography that throw you into the eerie and frightening Welsh highlands.
Film Inquiry writer Julia Smith had a chance to check out the Wales International Documentary Festival; here is an account of her experiences.
I first saw My Brief Eternity at the Wales International Documentary Festival, and such was its impact on me that after meeting the director Clare Sturges, and after writing up the festival itself, I resolved to review it so that others would come to know of it. The short documentary is a joint project between Maggie’s and Brightest Films, the former being a cancer charity, the latter Sturges’ production company. The film is about the Welsh artist; Osi Rhys Osmond.
Usually I will have heard about a film before it is released. It’s odd when that doesn’t happen. It’s even odder when the film was originally released almost a year ago and I still haven’t heard about it.
