Gideon Koppel directs this poetically-rendered portrait of
Trefeurig, the small farming community in mid-Wales where he grew
up. On a practical level, the isolated rural community struggles
for survival as the local primary school is threatened with
closure, traditional farming methods are rendered non-viable and
key services disappear - but the community spirit and strong
connection with nature ensure that many of the more intrinsic
aspects of the old way of life are kept alive. Reminiscent of the
works of Dylan Thomas in its subtle portrayal of rural life, the
film combines striking cinematography with an ambient electronic
soundtrack by Aphex Twin to pay homage to the filmmaker's
birthplace and a way of life that could soon die out altogether.
