Film Education
HUMANiTREE is a bold, feature-length documentary created and produced by young people at Urban Circle Newport. Blending science, sociology, and personal narrative, the film explores the African origins of all human life, challenging the myths that underpin racism and inequality today.
Through interviews with world-renowned geneticists, historians, and sociologists, HUMANiTREE uncovers how race is a social construct, not a biological truth — and how our shared ancestry connects us more deeply than we’re often taught.
Rooted in anti-racist education and youth-led media activism, the film is more than a documentary, it’s a tool for learning, dialogue, and transformation in classrooms, communities, and institutions across Wales and beyond.
Wales Untold is a dynamic youth-led documentary produced by Urban Circle Newport that uncovers the hidden histories of Black and ethnic minority communities in Wales. Through powerful interviews, local stories, and creative visuals, the film reveals how these communities have shaped Welsh culture, industry, and resistance — despite being overlooked in mainstream narratives.
Challenging the gaps in our collective memory, Wales Untold offers a counter-narrative to colonial and Eurocentric versions of history, reclaiming space for voices long excluded from the national story.
The film serves as both an artistic statement and an educational tool — sparking critical conversations in schools, universities, and community spaces across Wales and the UK.
