Following Yago
Synopsis
Jack has recently given up his full-time job to concentrate on writing a book on the Mary Rose. Finding it easier to work at night, his routine has changed and he now sleeps during the day. Meanwhile, his wife, Maddy, continues her job as a photographer in order to support them both. Then, one day, much to Jack's horror, Maddy brings home a self-help book with a view to improving what Jack thought was a perfectly happy relationship.
The film is, unusually, set completely in one location (the couple's house) with only the two lead characters seen throughout. By giving the audience a private insight into their lives behind closed doors, the story explores how situations that occur in our outside lives affect us and, in turn, our personal relationships.

Director: Adam Cooper
Year: 2003
Following Yago is a quirky study of married life. It takes the popular genre of romantic comedy and shifts the focus away from the typical 'boy meets girl' scenario to examine how a couple stay together and whether this is the basis of true love. Jack has recently given up his full-time job to concentrate on writing a book on the Mary Rose. Finding it easier to work at night, his routine has changed and he now sleeps during the day. meanwhile his wife, Maddy, continues her job as a photographer in order to support them both. It is nearing their wedding anniversary and they are planning a wedding to celebrate. Then, one day, much to Jack's horror, Maddy brings home a self-help book with a view to improving what Jack thought was a perfectly happy relationship. The film is, unusually, set completely in one location (the couple's house), with only the two lead characters seen throughout. By giving the audience a private insight into their lives behind closed door, the story explores how situations that occur in our outside lives affect us and, in turn, our personal relationships.

Lluest
Director: Gareth Bryn
Year: 2028
Eryri, North Wales, 1780. Maggie Jenkins has spent her life caring for her dying father in isolation. When he finally dies, she sees a chance to escape the life of duty that has defined her. But then her brother Endaf, long presumed dead, returns through the snow with a wounded Algerian soldier in tow. Welcomed home as a hero, Endaf soon reveals himself to be cold, controlling and dangerous. When the village takes Maggie’s home and inheritance from her and gives them to Endaf, she is pushed to the brink. Set against the brutal winter landscape of 18th-century North Wales, LLUEST is an elemental revenge drama about a woman forced to fight for her freedom — and what happens when she finally refuses to be silenced.
