I am really excited about the Egypt screening.
I have screening films in a lot of festivals but this one is the absolute
best in terms of screenings, and getting fantastic locations. Submitting
my film the the Swansea Film Festival 2007 was the best thing I have
ever done.

AMRITSA has co-produced
a new Russian / Welsh / English film entitled 'From Wales With Love',
it stars Ukrainian actress Olga Romchuk as Natasha. The film was shot
in and around Swansea during the Summer (!) of '07.
We join a new Russian
bride and her Welsh husband on their wedding night. The film premieres
at the Swansea Life Film Festival 2008.
Before
founding this film production company I'd enjoyed an enormously varied
career and I'm happy to include several Oscar and Golden Globe winners
amongst my personal friends. Why is a Hollywood based producer calling
his company Welsh Dragon Pictures ?? Like most people in this business
I'm a huge romantic - exacerbated by my Celtic roots. Another
reason is the vast reserves of talent and ability in Wales... just
think about that for a moment. An area of just a 30 miles radius has
given the world Sir Anthony Hopkins, Richard Burton, Catherine Zeta
Jones, Ioan Gryfydd, Michael Sheen, Sian Phillips, Sir Tom Jones,
Shirley Bassey and the first Welsh Oscar winner Ray Milland - whom
I had the great pleasure of working alongside. I also won a Tinny
here ! I' ve just completed shooting 'Christmas Isn't Presents' here
in Swansea. Enjoy the trailer.
The life story of Llanelli
born Gareth Hughes, Wales' first Hollywood motion picture star who
latterly became known as 'Brother David' will be launched to accompany
a TV documentary made by Kelvin Guy a relative of the star himself.
