After a seven-year relationship,\u252c\u00e1they bring together their friends and family from Italy &#8211; a country in which same-sex marriage is illegal &#8211; to marry in Sweden on the day of midsummer feast.<\/p>\n<p>The heartwarming documentary shows that borders in the way of love have ways to be overcome, whilst simultaneously critiquing Italian prejudice and civil rights. The tone is very much both lighthearted and serious in this partly crowdfunded film; it undoes the arguments against same-sex marriage through conversations with children who cannot fathom the current Italian laws, the support of family and friends who know of this love story, and scenes of\u252c\u00e1Lamminp\u251c\u00f1\u251c\u00f1 and Soldani showing that their love is just as pure and beautiful as any heterosexual marriage.<\/p>\n<p><em>Director Maria Pecchioli will be introducing the screening, presented in association with Cardiff&#8217;s Italian Film Festival, on the 15th Oct at Cardiff Cineworld.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-10486\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"lds_still_04-1920x1080\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-990x556.jpg 990w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-1320x742.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-470x264.jpg 470w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-640x360.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-215x120.jpg 215w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080-414x232.jpg 414w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/09\/LDS_still_04-1920x1080.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><em>Miles<\/em> (2016)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Nathan Adloff&#8217;s semi-autobiographical film tells the story of high school student Miles Walton in the year of dial-up internet, who wishes to escape his small farming town in Illinois for the city life of Chicago. Instant Messaging with strangers in his basement only feeds his need to leave his quieter life, wanting to have real and more exciting experiences in the wider world. With little money and his father&#8217;s passing keeping him from fulfilling his dream, he must rely on winning a college scholarship and join the girls volleyball team to do so.<\/p>\n<p>Adloff succeeds in making <em>Miles\u252c\u00e1<\/em>a detailed and authentic coming-of-age story in which the quest to leave home requires the support of its residents. Moreover, what is interesting about this film is that Miles&#8217; homosexuality is never seen as a plot device. This is what many films about minority groups seek: a normalisation in\u252c\u00e1cinema through representation in stories which we\u252c\u00e1can all relate to.<\/p>\n<p><em>Director Nathan Adloff will be present at the Iris Prize screening to introduce the film, screening on the 15th Oct at Cardiff Cineworld.<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><em>Horizon\u252c\u00e1<\/em>(2015)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>From the director of the iconic\u252c\u00e1<em>The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert\u252c\u00e1<\/em>comes\u252c\u00e1<em>Horizon,\u252c\u00e1<\/em>a story about innocent 18 year old Jake who comes to the city to meet 28 year old AJ after months of talking on a gay social networking site.

When approaching the subjects for the documentary, director Haas first anticipated that the film would instead focus on the friendship and support between Bennett and Joe, however upon meeting Bennett&#8217;s mother Suzy found that there\u252c\u00e1was even more to this story. In an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gaytimes.co.uk\/culture\/30938\/bfi-flare-shaleece-haas-talks-about-her-incredible-documentary-real-boy\/\">interview with Gay Times<\/a>, she states, &#8216;I knew the film needed to focus on their relationship as well.
