Oed yr Addewid (Do Not Go Gentle)

© The Screen and Sound Archive of the National Library of Wales
It’s March 1997 and, following 18 years of Tory rule, Britain is reaching a political crossroads. As William Davies walks from his house one morning, he puts a desperate and absurd plan into action that will one-up the system – so he thinks. But things go wrong as the old man realises that he has made a terrible mistake. As election day approaches, William Davies and his family learn a few truths - about each other, and about their true feelings about their home.
