Fantastic Social Portrayal...
26 June 2006
An excellent film showing life in Gwynedd during the 1930's.
Despite other comments, this was how Gypsy families were treated during this period in the area, and the Lord of the Manor was boorish, and the relationship (or rather lack of)between the Lord and the people of Bethesda still creates bitterness from the latter today.
This is one of the better lighter Welsh language movies, and ideal for a Sunday afternoon movie. If you cannot speak Welsh, I suggest you look for a Subtitled copy, as it is well worth watching.
An excellent portrayal of 1930's life in Bethesda, and fantastic scenic filmography too. Well worth watching if you are studying Welsh history, or just love beautifully shot films.
