Speak-Up

We wish to develop a cultural exchange between Galway and Leeuwarden, focusing on representations of minority languages in film. We will host a film festival that celebrates alternative languages from our communities. Galway is a bilingual city with English and Irish, and Leeuwarden is the capital of Friesland, a region in which both Dutch and Frisian are spoken. The first festival will be a celebration and cross-pollination of these linguistic traditions through the medium of film.
