A poetic proclamation of lesbian identity, a moving documentary portrait of an estranged son, a heartbroken divorcee finding happiness, a story of hope and pride on the war-torn streets of Tripoli, and two young men from one of the tougher parts of London experiencing an all-too-brief moment of intimacy. These five short films are for those who survive and thrive, whatever the circumstances.

Living in the tunnels beneath Tripoli a queer Libyan teenager, Britannia, dreams of escape to a better life, but an unexpected discovery forces him to question whether to stay or flee from his homeland and his friends. Baba is shortlisted for both the International and Best British prizes.


Yn byw yn y twneli o dan Tripoli, mae Britannia, bachgen ifanc Queer o Libya, yn breuddwydio am ddianc i fywyd gwell, ond mae darganfyddiad annisgwyl yn ei orfodi i gwestiynu a ddylid aros neu ffoi o'i famwlad a'i ffrindiau. Mae Baba ar y rhestr fer ar gyfer y gwobrau Rhyngwladol a Gorau Ym Mhrydain.
