14 Regent Hill, Brighton, BN1 3ED, <strong>UK</strong><br />

Synopsis: An 11th Century Godfather with a dash of The Tudors and a little Braveheart thrown in, the story of William the Conqueror is a<br />

historical epic like no other. An intricate, multi-faceted story of complex characters, their intense and conflicting relationships<br />

and, ultimately, their own individual destinies, it culminates in the events which took place on the battlefield of 1066 - arguably<br />

the most famous date in world history. A tapestry of political intrigue, betrayal and deception envelops the destinies of two great<br />

men, both vying <strong>for</strong> the British crown, one of whom will found a legendary dynasty that <strong>for</strong>med the basis <strong>for</strong> modern western<br />

civilization. One is the charismatic William, the "bastard" Duke of Normandy, the other his English rival, the popular Prince<br />

Harold. Caught up alongside them in this web of history are two powerful women, each of whom played a key role in their fates.<br />

Duchess Matilda of Flanders, the tempestuous wife William battled a country to win, and the gentle but determined Princess<br />

Edith, Harold's mistress, renowned as the most beautiful woman in the world. The story weaves together the actions and<br />

interactions of these four people-and those who would manipulate, help or hinder them-figures like Edward the Confessor,<br />

Harold's power-crazed brother Tostig and William's faithful friend and ally Fitz-creating a chain of rising action that culminates in<br />

the Battle of Hastings. A battle which decided the course of history both <strong>for</strong> Britain and the entire western world.<br />

Synopsis: AFRICA UNITED tells the extraordinary story of three Rwandan children and their bid to achieve their lifelong dream - to take<br />

part in the opening ceremony of the 2010 Football World Cup in Johannesburg. On the way to the vital selection trial, disaster<br />

strikes when Fabrice, Dudu and Beatrice board the wrong bus and cross into the Congo; without papers, money or a believable<br />

story, they are escorted to a UNICEF refugee camp. But with considerable ingenuity and sass (and a World Cup wall chart <strong>for</strong> a<br />

map), our pint-sized heroes escape the camp and set off through the endless horizons of Africa in pursuit of their dream, picking<br />

up along the way a "dream team" of displaced kids, who help them negotiate a series of glorious, dangerous and hilarious<br />

adventures. Through their 3000 mile journey, we encounter an Africa few people have ever seen; experience an epic adventure<br />

through seven countries; and feel the joy, laughter and hope that comes from making an incredible journey together. AFRICA<br />

UNITED is a dramatic, heartfelt and enchanting story set to enthrall audiences worldwide.<br />

Synopsis: The Dirty Dozen' meets 'Tigerland' in AGE OF HEROES - an action-packed adrenalin shot based on the true story of the<br />

<strong>for</strong>mation of James Bond creator Ian Fleming's 30 Commando, one of the most respected, secretive and exclusive special<br />

<strong>for</strong>ces regiments <strong>for</strong>med during the Second World War, from which the now legendary SAS was born. Ambushed deep behind<br />

enemy lines in WW2, the young British corporal Rains (DANNY DYER) fearlessly leads his men out of danger. But his rogue<br />

attitude costs him, and he's sent to an allied military prison <strong>for</strong> insubordination. When the highly esteemed Captain Jones (SEAN<br />

BEAN) shows up, Rains's bravado and raw display of fighting skills impress Jones enough to recruit him <strong>for</strong> his 'Commando'<br />

unit. After weeks of mentally intense and physically grueling training ops where Jones tests his men to their breaking point, they<br />

are quickly assigned their first mission; to parachute into occupied Norway and capture a deadly new radar technology from the<br />

Germans. But as they get near the drop-zone, the newly <strong>for</strong>med band of brothers, joined by 'Norwegian yank' Steiner and<br />

beautiful blonde spy Jensen, find themselves in the midst of a fierce dogfight, be<strong>for</strong>e crash landing in a Norwegian village where<br />

Nazis have been mercilessly executing civilians. In a bloody battle in the mountains of Norway, outnumbered by an enemy as<br />

ruthless as it is clinical, the soldiers soon realize it's do-or-die time. And by pushing their innate skills and hardcore training to the<br />

nth degree, we see that this is no time <strong>for</strong> ordinary soldiers!This is the AGE OF HEROES.<br />

Synopsis: Three years in the making, AMERICAN: THE BILL HICKS STORY brings the tale of one of modern culture‟s most iconic heroes<br />

to the big screen. Much more than a comedian, Bill Hicks was and still is an inspiration to millions. His timeless comedy tackled<br />

the contradictions of America and modern life head on. But his unique gift was to tease apart the essence of religion, the<br />

dangers of unbridled government power and the double standards inherent in much of modern society, using nothing but his<br />

hilarious ideas and the uncompromising observational style that continues to resonate with successive generations. Like many<br />

who have a strong sense of their place in history, Hicks left a large unseen legacy; his collection of video recordings and<br />

hundreds of photographs and these became the starting point <strong>for</strong> this feature-length animated documentary.<br />

Dom soon becomes one the boys. But as Bex and his ICF gang clash with rival firms across the country and the violence spirals<br />

out of control, Dom realises he wants out -until he learns it's not that easy to simply walk away. Humorous, heart-warming and<br />

set to a killer jazz funk '80s soundtrack, THE FIRM is a classic coming of age story set amongst one of England's most revered<br />

tribes.<br />

Synopsis: Meet Mahmud Nasir, London taxi driver, loving husband, doting father and something of a "relaxed" Muslim. Does the "F" word<br />

occasionally pass his lips? It's hardly worth mentioning. Does he say his prayers five times a day? Of course! Well, usually...<br />

Does he fast every day of Ramadan? Who's counting anyway? He may not be the most observant, but in his heart he is as<br />

Muslim as it gets. But after his mother's death a discovery turns Mahmud's world upside down. He finds his birth certificate which<br />

reveals that not only was he adopted at birth... but he's Jewish, and his real name is Solly Shimshillewitz! As Mahmud tumbles<br />

headlong into a full scale identity crisis, the only person he can turn to is Lenny, a Jewish cabbie who agrees to give him lessons<br />

in Jewishness, which start with how to dance like Topol. Oy vey.<br />

1A Adpar St., 3rd Fl., London, W2 1DE, <strong>UK</strong><br />

Synopsis: We all love Star Wars…until George Lucas went and ruined it! The passion the original Star Wars trilogy inspires in its fans is<br />

unparalleled, but when it comes to George Lucas himself, many have found their ardour has cooled into a complicated love-hate<br />

relationship. This hilarious, heartfelt documentary delves deep into Lucas‟ cultural legacy asking all the tough questions: has<br />

Lucas betrayed his masterwork? Should he just have left the original trilogy alone? Is The Phantom Menace so bad it should<br />

carry a health warning? Using interviews taken from over 700 hours of footage and peppered with extraordinary Star Wars<br />

recreations lovingly immortalised in needlepoint, lego, claymation and puppets, above all this film asks the question: who truly<br />

owns that galaxy far, far away? The man who created it or the fans who love it?<br />

threatened by a man who runs courses on Mental and Physical Wellbeing, the film will probably feature some elaborate setpieces<br />

of me taking him down. There will be helicopter shots. There will be slow-mo, but also transcendent moments, like when I<br />

cure my father's depression. Knowing me as I do, I will be surprised if this film runs to less than three hours. Note to the press:<br />

appropriate adjectives to describe this film include "breath-taking" and "irresistible" as well the phrase: "a monumental<br />

achievement" ."<br />
