In God’s Daughter Dances, a transgender dancer faces the prospect of national service in the army, while in De La Terreur, Mes Soeurs, gloomy Goth Kathoum and her friends embark on a candy-coloured fantasy of revenge. The films in this double bill address the cruelty and prejudice many Trans people face each day, but ultimately they are uplifting, occasionally outrageous tales of triumph, and a cinematic two-fingered salute to the transphobes!


Yn God’s Daughter Dances, mae dawnsiwr trawsryweddol yn wynebu gwasanaeth cenedlaethol yn y fyddin, tra yn De La Terreur, Mes Soeurs, mae’r Goth Kalthoum a’i ffrindiau yn cychwyn ar ffantasi dial lliw candi. Mae'r ffilmiau yn y rhaglen ddwbl hon yn mynd i'r afael â'r creulondeb a'r rhagfarn y mae llawer o bobl Draws yn eu hwynebu bob dydd, ond yn y pen draw maent yn straeon dyrchafol, gwarthus o bryd i'w gilydd, ac yn saliwt ddwy-fys sinematig i'r trawsffobau! 

Gathered in a late night café, sipping cocktails and suffering the patronising “compliments” of strangers, Kalthoum and her friends enter a candy-coloured fantasy of revenge. In the spirit of John Waters, De La Terreur, Mes Soeurs is a visual feast, and a funny, provocative tale of Trans vengeance!


Wrth ymgasglu mewn caffi hwyr y nos, yn sipian coctels ac yn dioddef “canmoliaeth” nawddoglyd dieithriaid, mae Kalthoum a'i ffrindiau'n dechrau ffantasi dial lliw candi. Yn ysbryd John Waters, mae De La Terreur, Mes Soeurs yn wledd weledol, ac yn stori ddoniol, bryfoclyd am ddialedd Traws!
