My Community, My Story, supported by Bad Wolf and Sony Pictures Television, offered a launchpad for emerging creatives ready to step into the world of documentary filmmaking. Over the course of just one month, participants researched, prepared, filmed, and edited their own short documentaries, guided every step of the way by documentary Executive Producers, Angela Clarke and Jay Bedwani.
In April 2025, ‘Back to Bute’ won the Undergraduate Factual Award at the RTS Cymru Awards, with ‘That Rugby Team From Tiger Bay’ also earning a nomination in the same category.
Recently showcased at S.O.U.L Fest in Summer 2025, the documentaries Back to Bute (directed by Micah Joshua Brown) and That Rugby Team From Tiger Bay (directed by Jason Nwachukwu) were followed by a panel discussion. Joining the conversation were Allison Dowzell OBE (Managing Director, SAW), Emma Obank (Creative & Commercial Affairs Executive, Bad Wolf), and Angela Clarke (Executive Producer), who shared behind-the-scenes perspectives and reflected on the creative journeys that brought the films to life.

Watch NowThat Rugby Team from Tiger Bay
In the heart of post-war Tiger Bay, 1946, a bold and diverse group of young men formed the Cardiff Internationals Athletic Club RFC, a rugby team unlike any other. Forged in one of Britain’s most multicultural communities, the club breaks racial and social barriers in a sport long dominated by tradition and exclusivity.
Driven by sheer talent and an unshakable brotherhood, the team storms local competitions, winning multiple cups and capturing the hearts of their community. But off the pitch, they face a different kind of opponent: the systemic resistance of the Welsh Rugby Union. As they campaign for official WRU status, their journey becomes one of resilience, justice, and pride.Directed by Jason Nwachukwu

Watch NowBack to Bute
In the vibrant docks of Cardiff’s Butetown, where cultures collide and community thrives, a celebration was born that would echo through generations: the Butetown Carnival.
Back to Bute journeys through the roots of this iconic event, tracing its beginnings in a post-war city shaped by the African, Caribbean, Arab, and Asian communities who called it home. What started as a grassroots celebration of identity and resistance would grow into a powerful cultural landmark, a joyful rebellion against invisibility.Directed by Micah Joshua Brown
