Welcome...

This year's festival will include amongst others:

Granny goes to Palestine
A grandmother from Swansea goes to the Middle East to protest against the Israeli wall which is splitting up Palestine families.
Life Before Death

Tibetan Stories
How two film makers supported remote Tibetan people telling their own stories (part of a presentation on Participatory Video).
Presentation by the Swansea stars of Channel 4's "Wife Swap" program.
The festival will open with a concert by top political band Seize the Day (Winners of the BBC3 world music award and then banned)
