Watch Party - Watch the Cynefin programme along with other festival goers and get involved in the live chat!


With no direct translation to English, ‘cynefin’ is a Welsh word rooted in the environment around you; highlighting that warm tingly feeling you get when you feel at peace, becoming one with nature. Wherever you are, join us to watch these films together apart and feel a sense of cynefin with us. This programme will take you around the world and back, showcasing films set in Hong Kong, Spain, and the gorgeous Irish countryside; depicting strangers' private moments at home and on their evening train commutes; and acting as a voyager to the past, present, and future.

Sunlight lingering on the horizon, we remember springtime on the island.

Based on the poem by Máirtín Ó Direáin, featuring music by Fionnuala Ní Chiosáin & Kíla, with vocals by Lisa Hannigan
