The Cardiff Animation Festival team returns to present this special screening of On-Gaku: Our Sound.

When you're a bored teenager looking for thrills sometimes the only thing you can turn to is rock ’n’ roll. Having no skill, money, or even a full set of drums, a trio of high school delinquents nevertheless decide they are destined for musical glory in a quest to impress their only friend Aya, avoid a rival gang, and (most importantly) jam. With innovative, hand-drawn animation and a performance from a Japanese rock legend, this is a film with a deadpan humour that brings its own sound and vision to the Hiroyuki Ohashi manga.

If you love all things animation, keep an eye out for our regular Caerphilly Animation Nights, an exciting evening of great animation from around the world. We’ll be sharing some of the best animated short films from the global animation festival circuit and watch independent animation on the big screen and meet like-minded people. ​
