Films at Chapter 6 – 12 February

This week’s films move between humour, heartbreak and the small moments that bring people together.

Is This Thing On? mixes comedy with quiet emotional turns, while My Father’s Shadow and Unsent Letter sit with family, memory and the things left unsaid. In Twinless, friendships form in unexpected places.

Elsewhere, Nouvelle Vague offers a playful celebration of cinema, The Chronology of Water follows one woman finding her voice through art, and R.E.M. x Buster Keaton’s Sherlock Jr pairs silent film with ’90s music for something delightfully surprising.

And regular passes for Cardiff Animation Festival 2026 are now on sale! Plan ahead for 4 days from packed with shorts, features and workshops to spark imaginations of all ages.
