God's Acre

Synopsis

Heavy drinking, agoraphobic, ex property developer Malcolm has lost almost everything he ever possessed to the recession. He has one remaining property, his only chance of escape from a lifetime fending off bailiffs and parasitical ex employees chasing unpaid debts. He needs to renovate and sell... fast! But work comes to a premature halt when he discovers the layout of his home doesn’t match the original plans.
Armed with a claw hammer, he begins demolishing the internal walls, discovering toys, clothes and trinkets belonging to a woman and child entombed within every wall.
Plagued by nightmares and apparitions of previous tenants Malcolm’s obsession leads to uncharacteristic acts of violence as he tries to protect his last remaining possession and unearth the dark truth hidden within it's four walls.

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.
