0:00:02 > 0:00:04Excuse me, are these croutons gluten-free?

0:00:12 > 0:00:13The Iris Prize continues to be
0:00:13 > 0:00:16the world's largest lesbian and gay short film prize.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19Three years ago, I just felt like...
0:00:19 > 0:00:21everything was...
0:00:21 > 0:00:23Like nothing was there.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26Um...like there was no hope at all.
0:00:26 > 0:00:28So I tried to kill myself.
0:00:35 > 0:00:4030 films, 30 of the best films compete annually for the prize.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43They're screened at a public festival in Cardiff
0:00:43 > 0:00:48where an international jury select the winner.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51And that winner goes on to make another short film
0:00:51 > 0:00:57with a prize which, um...at the moment is valued at £25,000.
0:00:57 > 0:01:02Five films have been produced to date with the Iris Prize
0:01:02 > 0:01:06and probably the film which has secured the most attention
0:01:06 > 0:01:10has been a film called Burger, which was the fourth film.
0:01:10 > 0:01:15And earlier this year, the film was selected out of 8,000 short films
0:01:15 > 0:01:19to screen at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- So, how are you doing, then, Mr Ireland?- Good.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25I love that accent! Speak more to me.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- What do you want me to say? - Tell me you want to marry me.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29I don't want to marry you.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31- Why? - HE LAUGHS
0:01:31 > 0:01:34So, what are you doing over here? Are you part of the IRA?
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Are you here to bomb me?
0:01:36 > 0:01:40Don't worry. My friend here is part of Al-Qaeda.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43- You can discuss bombing together. - I'm not a terrorist.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47- Well, you can discuss other things. He's very versatile.- Matthew!
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Really, a celebration of storytelling.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56The fact that some of the film-makers and some of the content
0:01:56 > 0:02:00is gay or lesbian is an important part of the festival.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03- Hey!- But really, I think what we're more interested in
0:02:03 > 0:02:06is effective storytelling.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16DANCE MUSIC
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Tired today, huh?
0:02:33 > 0:02:35It was hot in there, I tell you.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39- Izi?- Yeah.- Yeah?- What is this?
0:02:39 > 0:02:42- Come with us, please.- What's going on?- Come with us, please, sir.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- Hey! What is this?- Whoa-whoa-whoa! What's going on?
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Out of the way! Excuse me, coming through.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Hey-hey-hey! Whoa-whoa-whoa! What's going on here?
0:02:49 > 0:02:53The fifth film produced by the Iris Prize is Hurt's Rescue,
0:02:53 > 0:02:55by Grant Scicluna from Australia.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59I think what's unique about the Iris Prize is that we allow
0:02:59 > 0:03:03the winning film-maker the freedom to develop whatever story they want.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06It's quite unusual in the film industry
0:03:06 > 0:03:09for a director to be given that amount of freedom.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12And it's probably a rare opportunity
0:03:12 > 0:03:15for the winner to take something
0:03:15 > 0:03:18that maybe they've been thinking about for a long time
0:03:18 > 0:03:22and having that opportunity to realise the vision
0:03:22 > 0:03:25and for that story to appear on the big screen
0:03:25 > 0:03:27with all the resources that they need to tell it.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29It's quite unique to that extent.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02I hope my Hungarian's going to be good enough for you.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05- Koszonom.- Thank you.
