Y Sŵn
Dir. Lee Haven Jones | 2023 | 89 mins | Colour | UK | English / Welsh (subtitled) | 12A

In 1979, when Margaret Thatcher's first government breaks a promise to establish a Welsh language television channel, a wave of civil disobedience follows. One man - Gwynfor Evans (Rhodri Evan) - threatens to starve himself to death unless the government comes good on its manifesto pledge.

From the director of the brilliant Gwledd / The Feast, and featuring a brilliant ensemble cast that includes Penarthian Annes Elwy, this is an outstanding reimagining of one of the most colourful chapters in contemporary Welsh history.

Why you should see it: because it's a fascinating story told with heart and humour!
