Newly-found footage of rock bands from 1990s Wales is to be screened at a film festival as part of a Rhys Ifans-backed project.
The Hollywood star will join youngsters from the CellB youth programme when rare material from the so-called “Cool Cymru” era will be shown at the British Film Institute’s Rip It Up festival, at London’s Southbank Centre on 3 May.
The “priceless” footage includes bands Ffa Coffi Pawb, Catatonia and Super Furry Animals.
Ifans, originally from Ruthin, was the singer of Super Furry Animals before his acting breakthrough in 1997 crime caper Twin Town.
