Soundtrack

In late November 2008, Wales’ capital city will play host to the most ambitious and innovative creative film and music festival the UK has ever seen.

Centred around the historic Bay area from 26- 29 November, Cardiff will become ‘home’ to internationally renowned film makers and musicians alike, as they come together to be a part of Soundtrack: The International Film and Music Festival for Wales.

Celebrating the festival’s distinctive theme of the relationship of music in film through a packed schedule of film screenings, master classes, keynote speeches and workshops, alongside exceptional live music performances from classical to contemporary rock and roll fringe gigs, Soundtrack’s audience is guaranteed to be as varied as the line-up.

As part of a richly diverse programme of events, Welsh film makers will have opportunities to screen to a wider audience, and international ‘names’ have the chance to be met by those fans who made them a success. More than 7000 people are expected through the doors, from established film makers to emerging talents in film and music.

Involving many of the waterfront’s most impressive live performance venues including the world famous Wales Millennium Centre, Soundtrack: The International Film and Music Festival for Wales will have audiences glued to their cinema seat or enjoying a live performance with a twist. This annual event offers something to everyone who has a love of film or music, or both.

Award winning film writer and cult director Danny Boyle has been announced as the headlining star at this year’s Soundtrack festival.
