- Behind the Scenes: Pink Portraits @ Bad Wolf
We take a look behind the scenes as photographer Siria Ferer captures portraits of some of the LGBTQ+ individuals bringing some of the biggest television dramas to our screens with Cardiff-based production company Bad Wolf.
A poignant and heartwarming story set in a Welsh fishing village. Henrick (Ché) and Arwyn (Iwan) share a bond that transcends friendship, filled with unspoken longing and love. Henrick’s love for Shirley Bassey’s music is his way to overcome the conservative views of their community.
The film explores the struggles of Henrick and Arwyn as they navigate their feelings for each other in a society that may not fully accept them.
This is the thirteenth film made by a winner of the Iris Prize.
