The Rhiwbina short film Annalium 8: Sssss has been confirmed as part of the official selection for the Wild Indie Scifi & Fantasy Film Festival in London.
The official selection is about 15-20% of the entry and means the film is now competing for an award. There’s also a chance it will be screened at the festival in London in May.
And the film has gained a further accolade by being named a quarter finalist in the Short Filmz awards.
These latest successes follow a string of previous achievements, which we reported earlier in the year.
Filmed locally, Annalium 8: Sssss was written and co-produced by Rhiwbina-born-and-raised Rob Lancey, and also produced by our own Andy Weltch of Weltch Media.
The film, directed by Andrew ‘Griff’ Griffin, stars Francesca Louise White and Minaii Baelfire. Francesca is an award-winning actress, and Minaii holds the distinction of being the world’s first Black Young Elsa in a stage production of Frozen.
You may have seen the film at Monico Movies last October or at another local screeening, but if you missed it, you can now watch it online here.
For the latest news, follow the film on X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Facebook.
