IRIS’S PATRONS / LLYWYDDION IRIS “IT IS OUR GREAT PLEASURE to welcome you to Cardiff, Wales, for the first ever Iris Prize Festival. This unique event brings together a global network of gay and lesbian film festivals to celebrate the very best of short film making talent.

The festival programme also includes an impressive selection of feature films - many receiving their European Première - together with informative talks, question and answer sessions, and we believe the odd party or two!

“PLESER MAWR YW CAEL eich croesawu chi i Gaerdydd i ŵyl gyntaf Gwobr Iris. Mae’r digwyddiad unigryw hwn yn tynnu at ei gilydd rwydwaith byd-eang o ŵyliau ffilm hoyw a lesbiaidd er mwyn dathlu talentau rhai o’r gwneuthurwyr ffilmiau byrion gorau.

INTRODUCTION / CYFLWYNIAD

“ASK MOST PEOPLE and they’ll tell you that the most boring part of any journey is the return leg. Normally we’d agree, but Iris has been the exception.

For the past 18 months she’s been travelling all over the world connecting with some of the most vibrant, exciting and supportive film festivals across the globe. Her journey began in Sydney, and then it was off to America, via London, where she visited a host of cities including New York, San Francisco and LA amongst many others. On her way to the UK, she managed to find the time to stop off at Hong Kong, Manila and Ireland, before finally setting her sights on home. And yet, after all that travelling, Iris’ homecoming is undoubtedly the most exciting part of her journey.

It all began with a simple premise: to acknowledge, celebrate and support new film making talent and to reflect the diversity of gay and lesbian film making around the world. However, it took the support of many individuals, organisations and companies to make this idea into a reality.Your belief in us and Iris has been extremely humbling and we’re very grateful for all your help along the way.

So here it is: three days, thirty short films, seven features, a few talks, and the odd party or two, and then Iris sets off on her travels again. Before that, the International Jury, to whom we’re extremely grateful, will have the difficult task of choosing just one film as the winner of the inaugural Iris Prize.

“PEBYDDECH YN GOFYN i’r rhan fwyaf o bobl, byddent yn dweud wrthych mai rhan fwyaf diflas unrhyw siwrnai yw’r daith yn ôl. Fel arfer byddem yn cytuno, ond bu Iris yn eithriad.

Am y 18 mis diwethaf bu’n teithio i bedwar ban yn cysylltu gyda rhai o’r gwyliau ffilm mwyaf egniol, cyffrous a chefnogol ar draws y byd.

Dechreuodd ei thaith yn Sydney, ac yna aeth i America, drwy Lundain, lle ymwelodd â llu o ddinasoedd yn cynnwys Efrog Newydd, San Francisco ac LA Ar ei ffordd gartref i Brydain, llwyddodd i gael amser i alw yn Hong Kong, Manila ac Iwerddon, cyn meddwl mai teg fyddai edrych tuag adref.

Ac eto, ar ôl y teithio hwnnw, yn ddi-os dychwelyd adref yw rhan fwyaf cyffrous o daith Iris.

Dechreuodd y cyfan gyda syniad syml: cydnabod, dathlu a chefnogi talent newydd ac adlewyrchu’r amrywiaeth o ffilmiau hoyw a lesbian a wneir ym mhob rhan o’r byd. Fodd bynnag, bu’n rhaid cael cefnogaeth llawer o unigolion, sefydliadau a chwmnïau i wireddu’r freuddwyd. Bu eich ffydd ynom ni ac Iris yn gefn mawr i ni ac rydym yn ddiolchgar iawn am eich holl help ar hyd y daith.

Felly dyma hi: tri diwrnod, deg ar hugain o ffilmiau byr, saith ffilm hir, ychydig o sgyrsiau, a pharti neu ddau, ac yna bydd Iris yn dechrau ar ei thaith eto. Cyn hynny, bydd y Rheithgor Rhyngwladol, yr ydym yn ddiolchgar tu hwnt iddynt, yn cael y dasg anodd o ddewis un ffilm yn unig i ennill y Wobr Iris gyntaf.

To all our visiting film makers, guests and members of the general public, we hope you enjoy the festival. ”

- Berwyn Rowlands & James Nee Festivals Company

I’r holl wneuthurwyr ffilmiau sydd yma, ein gwesteion ac aelodau’r cyhoedd, gobeithiwn y byddwch yn mwynhau’r ŵyl.”

FEATURES / FFILMIAU NODWEDD IRIS IS ALSO a big fan of feature films, and we are excited to introduce seven new impressive works from the US and Europe. Some of the films have yet to secure a distribution deal in the UK and many of the screenings will be accompanied by the film makers (page 37).

Our programme starts with a preview screening of the highly acclaimed The Bubble, which has won countless audience awards at festivals around the world. Tissues and possibly a large G&T might be needed following the screening. You’ve been warned.

MAE IRIS HEFYD yn ffan o ffilmiau nodwedd ac r’yn ni’n falch iawn i allu cyflwyno saith o weithiau newydd a phwysig gan wneuthurwyr ffilm o Ewrop a UDA. Mae rhai o’r ffilmiau yn dal heb ddêl ddosbarthu ym Mhrydain ac fe fydd sawl un o’r dangosiadau yn digwydd yng nghwmni’r gwneuthurwyr ffilm (tudalen 37).

Mae ein rhaglen yn dechrau gyda dangosiad arbennig o The Bubble, ffilm a enillodd wobrau niferus mewn gwyliau ffilm ledled y byd. Ond gair o rybudd – mae’n bosib y bydd angen hances boced a G&T mawr arnoch chi ar ôl ei gweld hi!

4 OCT / HYD 20.30 CINEWORLD 5 OCT / HYD 18.00 CINEWORLD IF YOU THINK you know anything about Israel think again. Tel Aviv’s hippest neighbourhood is home to three attractive best friends who live in a wonderful bubble of music shops, restaurants, theatres and parties, protected from the turmoil of Middle East politics.Their lives however take an unexpected turn when gay Israeli Noam, who has just returned from military duties, falls in love with a sexy Palestinian named Ashraf.

This hugely successful festival favourite is yet another hit for celebrated director Eytan Fox (Yossi and Jagger) who delivers a hopelessly romantic and beautiful film with a devastating final reel.

OS CREDWCH eich bod yn gwybod unrhyw beth am Israel, meddyliwch eto. Mae cymdogaeth fwyaf ffasiynol Tel Aviv yn gartref i dri ffrind gorau sy’n byw mewn swigen o siopau, bwytai a phartïon, wedi’u diogelu rhag berw gwleidyddiaeth y Dwyrain Canol. Ond daw tro annisgwyl pan syrthia Noam, Israeliaid hoyw sydd newydd ddychwelyd o’r fyddin, mewn cariad gyda Phalestiniad rhywiol o’r enw Ashraf.

Mae’r ffilm hon yn ffefryn mewn gwyliau ac yn llwyddiant arall i’r cyfarwyddwr, Eytan Fox (Yossi and Jagger).

Mae hi’n ffilm ramantus a hardd - a’r rîl derfynol yn ysigol.

Feeling trapped, and encouraged by his friends Andie and Jake (Jay Brannon, Shortbus), he leaves Darrell after discovering him collapsed following another heroin overdose. A new romance develops for Trevor with handsome Ephram, but in the background is a rejected Darrell and the impending results of the group’s HIV test.

The weekend of sex and drugs is somewhat interrupted by the homohating Helen, the hostess who loves killing queers for sport who happens to have a daughter with lesbian tendencies.

Mae Helen, sy’n casáu hoywon ac sydd yn digwydd bod â merch lesbiaidd, yn ymyrryd ar benwythnos o ryw a chyffuriau.

Ffilm ddoniol, rywiol â rhybudd clir, peidiwch derbyn myffins cynnes “hyfryd” mewn unrhyw Wely a Brecwast, byth!

6 OCT / HYD 14.30 CHAPTER 1 THIS ADAPTATION of Oscar Wilde’s classic novel sees the handsome and wealthy Dorian the subject of a multimedia portrait installation in a vibrant early 90s New York.

Fearful of losing his good looks, Dorian makes an arrangement with the devil that he will remain youthful while his portrait ages.

As Dorian becomes a modern day monster his journey reminds us of society’s preoccupation with youth and beauty.

Roy Duncan (AKA) returns to the international stage with a provocative insight into the darkest corners of human nature.

YN YR ADDASIAD hwn o nofel glasurol Oscar Wilde, mae’r Dorian hardd, cyfoethog yn destun portread amlgyfrwng yn Efrog Newydd ddechrau’r 90au. Yn ofni colli ei harddwch, mae Dorian yn trefnu â’r diafol y bydd yn parhau i edrych yn ifanc tra bo’i bortread yn heneiddio. Wrth i Dorian ddod yn anghenfil modern, mae ei daith yn ein hatgoffa o bwyslais cymdeithas ar ieuenctid a harddwch.

Mae Roy Duncan (AKA) yn dychwelyd i’r llwyfan rhyngwladol â golwg bryfoclyd ar gorneli tywyllaf y natur ddynol.

THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY (15) DUNCAN ROY, 2007, US/UK, 97 MIN

6 OCT / HYD 17.00 CINEWORLD MAYA AND SASHA are a thirty-something lesbian couple living in London. Fiona lives with her passive husband Todd, and sister Gillian prowls the streets for men. Although living independent lives they share the realisation that the biological clock is ticking. Enter Laurence - who may have the seed the girls need, and a cast of attractive men who become the subjects of Gillian’s erotic photographs.

This carefully observed story deals with the difficult questions about having a baby relevant to both gay and straight couples. Illustrated sketches by Gornick are used as a delightful motif in the film.

MAE MAYA A SASHA yn gwpl lesbian yn eu tridegau sy’n byw yn Llundain. Mae Fiona yn byw gyda’i gŵr goddefol Todd, tra bo Gillian, chwaer Fiona, yn crwydro’r strydoedd yn edrych am ddynion. Maent oll yn rhannu un peth, sef sylweddoliad fod y cloc biolegol yn ticio.Ym mherson Laurence maen nhw’n gweld ateb posib - ei had!

Mae’r ffilm bersonol a gofalus hon, sydd hefyd yn annisgwyl o erotig, yn ymwneud â chwestiynau anodd am gael babi, sy’n berthnasol i gyplau hoyw a hetero. Mae brasluniau gan yr awdurgyfarwyddwr Gornick yn cael eu defnyddio fel motif hyfryd yn y ffilm.

Welsh Première. Writer and director Lisa Gornick in attendance.

Première Cymreig. Yng nghwmni’r awdur a’r cyfarwyddwr Lisa Gornick.

6 OCT / HYD 18.00 CHAPTER 1 THE LIVES of a group of teenage friends are thrown into complete chaos when Pierre, their charismatic and sexy ringleader, disappears. Told through flashbacks, we discover the magnetic hold Pierre had not only on the group, including his sister and best friend Nico, but the wider village including the older man who hired him for private orgies.

Based on true events that shook France, the film is located in an idyllic country setting, which adds to the film’s erotically charged and explicit sex scenes and reminds us of all that is bleak and beautiful about being young.

CAIFF BYWYDAU grŵp o ffrindiau yn eu harddegau eu taflu ben-i-waered pan ddiflanna Pierre, eu harweinydd carismataidd, rhywiol. Adroddir yr hanes drwy fflachio’n ôl, a gwelwn y gafael magnetaidd sydd ganddo nid yn unig ar y grŵp ond ar y pentref ehangach - gan cynnwys y dyn hŵn a’i llogodd am sesiynau rhyw preifat.

Yn seiliedig ar ddigwyddiadau gwir a ysgydwodd Ffrainc, mae’r ffilm wedi’i lleoli mewn ardal wledig hyfryd, sy’n ychwanegu at olygfeydd rhyw erotig a chignoeth y ffilm ac yn ein hatgoffa am y gwych a’r gwachul o fod yn ifanc.

6 OCT / HYD 19.00 CINEWORLD THE EXTRAORDINARY journey of homosexuality in Wales is captured for the first time in Welsh in this powerful and intelligent feature-length documentary directed by Nia Dryhurst, one of Wales’ most promising film makers. With contributions from members of the Welsh gay community, as well as Wales’ foremost historian John Davies, the film richly contextualises the gay experience in Wales, revealing the true extent of the horrors experienced by many not so long ago, to the new freedoms enjoyed by couples throughout the country. Concluding with the celebrations of a civil partnership, Fel Arall is the perfect film to close the Iris Prize Festival.

World Première.

AM Y TRO CYNTAF, caiff hanes hynod y profiad hoyw yng Nghymru ei archwilio mewn ffilm ddogfen nodwedd rymus a deallus gan Nia Dryhurst, un o wneuthurwyr ffilm mwyaf addawol Cymru. Gyda chyfraniadau gan aelodau’r gymuned hoyw yng Nghymru yn ogystal â chan hanesydd mwyaf blaenllaw Cymru, John Davies, mae’r ffilm yn diffinio cyd-destun i’r profiad hoyw yng Nghymru, o brofiadau erchyll y gorffennol cymharol agos i hawliau newydd blynyddoedd mwy diweddar. Mae hi’n gorffen â golygfa o ddathliadau partneriaeth sifil ac, yn wir, Fel Arall yw’r ffilm berffaith i gloi Gŵyl Gwobr Iris.

4 OCT / HYD 14.30 CHAPTER 1 | WRITER’S SESSION / SESIWN SGRIPTIO DOES A WRITER creating gay stories for a gay audience have a different approach to a writer examining the same issues for a mainstream, predominantly straight, audience?

How much influence do the audiences’ expectations and the producers’ influence have on the writer’s freedom? And, are we seeing a coming together of the gay and mainstream audience post Torchwood? Cath Treganna, writer of Torchwood, Cardiff-based author of Eleven, David Llewellyn, together with writer and star of Holding Trevor, Brent Gorski, will be in conversation to discuss the above issues and talk about their experiences of writing gay stories for gay and straight audiences alike.

Free event. Tickets at Chapter Box Office.

A YW SGRIPTIWR sy’n creu straeon hoyw i gynulleidfa hoyw yn mynd o gwmpas ei bethau’n wahanol i storïwr sy’n archwilio’r un themâu i gynulleidfa strêt, gan mwyaf, ffilm yn y brif ffrwd?

Faint o effaith y mae disgwyliadau cynulleidfa a disgwyliadau cynhyrchydd yn eu cael ar yr awdur? Ac a ydyn ni, yn y cyfnod ôl-Torchwood, yn gweld y gynulleidfa hoyw a chynulleidfa’r brif ffrwd yn agosáu at ei gilydd? Bydd sgriptiwr Torchwood, Cath Treganna, awdur Eleven, David Llewelyn, ac awdur a seren Holding Trevor, Brent Gorski, yn trafod y pynciau hyn a’u profiadau nhw o sgrifennu straeon i gynulleidfaoedd hoyw a strêt fel ei gilydd.

Am ddim.

5 OCT / HYD 11.00 CHAPTER, MEDIA POINT PRODUCER’S FORUM / FFORWM AR GYNHYRCHU OVER THE PAST TWENTY YEARS, gay and lesbian cinema has grown from niche market status into a viable and successful international film industry. The Producer’s forum will examine what lessons Welsh production companies, who produce Welsh and English content, can learn from those production companies who successfully produce, promote and market gay content. Join our international industry guests to discuss the above and other issues during the first Iris Prize industry forum.

Free event. Spaces are limited, so to avoid disappointment book early by sending an email to james@irisprize.org.

DROS YR UGAIN mlynedd diwethaf, mae sinema hoyw a lesbiaidd wedi datblygu o fod yn farchnad niche i fod yn ddiwydiant rhyngwladol llwyddiannus. Bydd y Fforwm ar Gynhyrchu yn edrych ar y gwersi y gall cwmnïau cynhyrchu Cymreig – yn cynhyrchu deunydd Cymraeg a Saesneg - eu dysgu gan y cwmnïau hynny sydd yn cynhyrchu, yn hyrwyddo ac yn llwyddo yn y farchnad hoyw. Ymunwch â’n gwesteion arbennig ni – pobl broffesiynol y diwydiant byd-eang – i drafod y pynciau hyn a mwy, yn fforwm proffesiynol gŵyl gyntaf Gwobr Iris.

Am ddim. Nifer cyfyngedig o leoedd fydd ar gael, fodd bynnag, felly archebwch le mewn da bryd. Danfonwch e-bost at james@irisprize.org.
