About

Huw Morgan, the academically inclined youngest son in a proud family of Welsh coal miners, witnesses the tumultuous events of his young life during a period of rapid social change. At the dawn of the 20th-century, a miners' strike divides the Morgans: the sons demand improvements, and the father doesn't want to rock the boat.

Lush, sweeping cinematography captures the fading warmth of a Welsh mining village before industrial strife fractures its soul. This quiet family epic finds its heart in the friction between a father's traditions and a son's hunger for education.
