Project Detail

Yr Aduniad (The Reunion)

Synopsis

This 90's film is based on the very successful stage play 'Yr Aduniad - The Reunion' by Delyth Jones.





When thirtysomethings Lynne, Sioned, Wendy, Nerys and Jane meet for a reunion. They haven't seen each other since school days. Their chosen venue is 'Le Petit Cassoulette' a wine bar in their home town, Llanelli, a place as chic as it is shabby and as pretentious as it is tacky. The Reunion is essentially a comedy with dark undertones.





We are eavesdropping on very personal confessions about their past, their expectations and the reality of their lives. All laced with the honest, sometimes perceptive and often lewd and bawdy observations on life, the universe and men, that you only get from five old friends on a night out.

A 50-year-old widow, Emma, has lost everything since her husband, Sam, was killed and her final refuge, a holiday lodge in Cornwall is due to be repossessed too.

Bertie Taylor-Smith, Alex Paper Cut

Director: Jack Sain

Year: 2026

Long-lost siblings meet for dinner. They end the night in drag. By sunrise, a shocking revelation tests the limits of love and acceptance. PAPER CUT is a debut feature from queer British writer-director Jack Sain. Alex has just found Alice - the birth sister he never knew existed - living four tube stops away. He invites her and her boyfriend over for dinner at the comfortable London home he shares with his boyfriend Sasha. Everyone is on their best behaviour. Everyone has rehearsed. By midnight, all four of them are in drag at a queer nightclub. By 5am, something comes to light that none of them can take back. The film puts social satire through an experimental lens, with a propulsive original score and formally adventurous set pieces, including a split-screen sequence. It asks what happens when people who pride themselves on openness are confronted with something they cannot absorb. The cast includes legendary trans actress Adèle Anderson, Olivier Award nominee and longtime member of cabaret trio Fascinating Aïda, and Barney White of ITV's Professor T - pairing established stage and screen talent with brilliant newcomers.
