Amit Gupta directs this adaptation of Owen Sheers' debut novel
starring Andrea Riseborough and Michael Sheen. It's 1944 and D-Day
has failed. The United Kingdom is now under Nazi occupation. In the
remote Welsh village of Olchon, farmer's wife Sarah Lewis
(Riseborough) wakes up one morning to find her husband has
mysteriously disappeared along with all the other men in the
village. Then, as they wait for news, a German patrol arrives in
their valley on an undisclosed mission. During the harsh winter
that follows, the two groups are forced to pull together to survive
the last days of the war. Cut off from the conflict around them,
both the villagers and the Nazis find the lines between
collaboration, duty, occupation and survival becoming less defined
as time goes on...
This is the first detailed examination of land alienation and land
use by white settlers in an Australian colony. It treats the first
decades of settlement in Van Diemen's Land, encompassing the
effects of the European invasion on Aboriginal society, the early
history of environmental degradation, the island's society history
and the growth of primary industry. The book presents vivid
insights into nineteenth-century society, where wool was so useless
that it was burnt, and farmers lived in fear of bushrangers and
Aborigines. We see how individuals were constrained by the rigid
expectations of race, class and gender in a society where no white
man ever stood trial for rape or murder of a black. Drawing on
contemporary diaries and letters, as well as government statistics,
manuals for intending settlers and newspaper reports, Sharon Morgan
has built up a comprehensive picture of the significance of
landscape and land use in early colonial society.

Kevin Allen directs this erotic comedy adaptation of Dylan Thomas's
1954 radio play. Set in the fictional Welsh fishing village of
Llareggub, the story follows the lives and shenanigans of the
residents who share their thoughts and dreams through the medium of
poetry, including two-time widow Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard (Buddug
Verona James), the music-obsessed Organ Morgan (Aneirin Hughes),
good-time girl Polly Garter (Charlotte Church) and the old, blind
seaman Captain Cat (Rhys Ifans).
Featuring three plays produced by the Hijinx Theatre, this
collection is both stirring and diverse. "Paul Robeson Knew My
Father" is the story of a young boy growing up in the South Wales
Valleys in the 1950s. The son of a single mother, he is an isolated
child who becomes obsessed with Paul Robeson, the movie star, and
retreats into a fantasy world of spies and fighter pilots while
struggling to find out the truth about his father. "Dreaming
Amelia," inspired by Amelia Earhart's landing in Burry Port in
1928, reveals how the success of one person can inspire others to
have the courage to follow their dreams; while "Spinning the Round
Table," a take on the love triangle of Arthurian legend, explores
love and betrayal in the corridors of power.

Here are gathered together in a fabulous celebration of the success
and diversity of Welsh women writers, five funny, bizarre, and
emotional pieces of theatre. The Red Room by Lucy Gough takes a
journey through Charlotte Bronte's imagination. Woven around the
multi-colored Welsh bed quilt, Magic Threads by Sharon Morgan
conveys the female collective unconscious, capturing one moment in
the history and self-recognition of a Welsh woman. The Queen of
Hearts by Christine Watkins is a humorous exploration of the
effects of a supernatural visit from Princess Diana on two Welsh
flatmates. I Am Angela Brazill by Lucinda Cox is a piece for a
woman in her mid-forties to be played by a male that twists the
illusion of theatre, Gweeno Dafydd's No Regrets captures the life
and times of Piaf.
