About The Newport Cut

The Newport Cut, hosted by Ffilm Cymru Wales and Newport City Council, will include the premiere of Keefa Chan’s Rebels & Renaissance, a cinematic exploration of Newport's artists and the working-class history of the chartists’ rebellion.

Produced by Rewired Life, the short documentary captures the essence of Newport’s eclectic and diverse community of talented local creatives, and features interviews with Connor Allen, Juls Benson, Georgina Ella Harris, Mohamad Fez Miah and many more. A Q&A session with Keefa will follow this first screening of his film.

The Newport Cut also features screenings of fantastic short films made by local people during Ffilm Cymru Wales’ Foot In The Door Film Skills Fest, including Make A Film in a Week. You can take look behind the scenes, and hear from some of the people involved, in this video.

As well as film premieres, the event offers the opportunity to network with Newport’s vibrant creative community, promising to be a welcoming space to share stories, make new connections, and discover training and career opportunities in the film industry.

The Newport Cut takes place at 18:00 on 29th November at University of South Wales, Newport.
