Directed by Lee Haven Jones 
Starring Mark Lewis Jones, Sian Reese-Williams, Rhodri Evan 

Margaret Thatcher swept to power in 1979 with a manifesto that promised to establish a Welsh language television channel.  Months into her premiership, she reneged on her promise and sparked protests in Wales. Against a backdrop of civil disobedience, the iconic politician Gwynfor Evans vows to starve to death unless the government changes its mind. One of the most colourful chapters of modern Welsh history told in an imaginative and unique style.

This screening will be followed by a Q&A with Roger Williams, the writer and producer of the film.

 

Yn 1979, fe ddaeth Margaret Thatcher i rym gyda maniffesto ag addawodd sefydliad sianel deledu yn y Gymraeg. Ar ôl ychydig fisoedd mewn grym, fe aeth hi yn ôl ar ei gair a sbarduno protestiadau eang ar draws Cymru. Gydag ymwrthedd sifil yn bygwth, mae’r gwleidydd eiconig Gwynfor Evans yn ymrwymo i lwgu i farwolaeth os nad bod y llwyodraeth yn newid ei meddwl. Un o benodau mwyaf lliwgar hanes Cymru wedi ei hadrodd mewn ffordd greadigol ac unigryw.
