Welcome to China Classic Film Festival.

The festival is Wales' first nationwide festival of Chinese cinema, and runs throughout October to mark the 60th anniversary of the People's Republic of China and to give film-lovers in Wales the chance to discover great Chinese films which they might not otherwise have even heard of.

While the festival hopes to attract audience members from the Chinese community in Wales, the films have been carefully selected for their strong and engaging stories and colourful characters in order to appeal to as many people as possible, whether or not they have any special knowledge of Chinese culture or history.
