Mixed
Documentary series showcasing short films made by talented new film-makers as part of It's My Shout training scheme.
Alexandria Riley is a successful actress on stage and screen from Newport. Most recently she has appeared in the TV shows In My Skin and The Tuckers (now commissioned for a series). But there is something niggling. Something unsettling. Something she comes face to face with every time someone asks her – 'Yes, but where are you really from?' It's about the colour of her skin. It's about being mixed race. And it's about how that squares with being Welsh.
The film is her personal journey to explore her identity. She talks to other mixed race people and how they have come to terms with who they are, and she hopes that a DNA test may help her to resolve her uncertain feelings – the 'knot' inside her as she describes it. The number of people in Wales from a mixed race background is growing. Alexandria wonders how they connect to the images of Welsh heritage presented to them – and when will that question 'where you really from?' stop being asked. Director Gavin Porter himself comes from a mixed-heritage background in Cardiff.
