The present invention provides a uniaxially oriented multilayer film comprising at least (i) a layer (A) and (ii) a layer (B), wherein said layer (A) comprises a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) comprising (e.g. selected from): - a multimodal LLDPE produced using a Ziegler Natta catalyst (znLLDPE), or - a LLDPE produced using a single site catalyst (mLLDPE) or - a mixture of a mLLDPE and a multimodal znLLDPE, said layer (B) comprises a multimodal LLDPE, and said multilayer film is in the form of a stretched film which is uniaxially oriented in the machine direction (MD) in a draw ratio of at least 1:3.
