Remembering France is an oral history film by Dr Penny Miles that celebrates both Wales’s historic run to the semi-finals of Euro 2016 and its female fans.

It tells the less-oft shared tales of motherhood, female protagonism and footballing expertise, alongside fan experiences of tournament firsts and Welsh nationhood.

As part of the ESRC Festival of Social Science we are teaming up with Penny to bring Remembering France to independent cultural venues across Wales.
