Picturing Our Past

Picturing Our Past / Fframio'n Gorffennol brings to vivid life the history of Welsh film and television.

Its five chapters follow the compelling story from early pioneering silent film making, through the coming of sound, up to the television and then digital era. Each chapter is illustrated with five film clips from the appropriate period.

The app is written and compiled by award-winning director Colin Thomas and Iola Baines, Moving Image Curator at the National Library of Wales Screen and Sound Archive.
