The Crew
Director: Adrian Vitoria
Year: 2008
Across the city organised gangs are fighting for control of the lucrative supply of narcotics but supremacy in this violent world is short-lived as younger, hungrier and more ruthless gangs move up. Against this brutal backdrop Ged Brennan, his younger brother Ratter and their crew pursue a dying trade of old time heists, but with two decades of meticulously planned jobs behind them, Ged is planning to turn his back on this life after one final heist. The problem is that Ratter has long since outgrown the needless danger of Ged's blags and has become increasingly desperate to move into the profitable world of drugs, a world that Ged wants nothing to do with. To make the move Ratter knows that he must cut all links with his brother but, for now, he has his own sinister reasons for staying on board. As the make-or-break heist approaches Ged must summon all of his street nous and killer instinct just to survive, and even then he needs friends in low places to ensure that the stains vanish without trace.
The Scarlet Tunic
Director: Stuart St Paul
Year: 1998
In nineteenth century rural England, a German hussar serving with King George III's personal cavalry, Matthaus Singer, falls madly in love with Frances Groves, the only daughter of a West Country solicitor. Based on the short story 'The Melancholy Hussar' by Thomas Hardy
Marriage Test
Director: Sara Nourizadeh
Year: 2026
Set in a mosque waiting room in 1980s South Wales, and inspired by the true story of writer-director Sara Nourizadeh's parents, a young couple whose relationship crossed boundaries of culture, faith and expectation. At a time when Iranian politics dominated UK headlines and shaped public attitudes, a Welsh woman and her Iranian fiancé prepare for an Islamic conversion ceremony – a requirement they must fulfil if they are to marry. What follows is a quietly charged and emotionally intimate portrait of two people trying to navigate a moment that is both deeply personal and subtly political. As they wait for the ceremony to begin, small details – a trembling hand, a whispered joke, a fleeting moment of doubt – reveal the emotional stakes beneath the surface. Their conversation dances between humour and tension, affection and uncertainty, reflecting the push and pull of family pressures, cultural misunderstandings, and their own hopes for the future. Authentic VHS archive footage of the real couple is interwoven within this scripted drama, grounding the film in lived experience and offering an unexpectedly tender glimpse into the decades that followed.
