Will the Minister list all the films, financed through the Welsh Government film and television fund, that have been completed to date, and confirm in which locations (cinemas, theatres, arts centres) in Wales those films were shown?

Answered by Deputy Minister for Culture, Sport and Tourism | Answered on 04/02/2020

14 of the Films we funded between 2012/13 and 2019/20 have completed, but 5 of these are yet to be released.  A list of these is at annex 1.    To our knowledge, the productions have been shown in many locations and on diverse platforms; however this is not something that Welsh Government keeps track of as it is very difficult to do so, due to the ease and frequency with which productions move platforms digitally, and constant changes in licensing agreements. 

Information on which platforms are currently streaming each production is available via www.justwatch.com/uk the streaming guide for movies and shows, and it is easy to obtain physical copies of most productions online and in major high street retailers.
