About This Movie
Tryweryn, The Story of a Valley is quite the somber documentary, really. It captures the slow but steady devastation of Capel Celyn and its surroundings, all for the sake of a reservoir meant to supply Liverpool. The film’s pacing draws you in gently, allowing the weight of loss to settle in. The stark visuals of the valley and the community's daily life contrast sharply with the looming sense of obliteration. The atmosphere is thick with nostalgia and sorrow, accentuated by the absence of a clear narrative voice, which lets the haunting visuals speak for themselves. There's something raw in witnessing the cultural impact of such a loss, making it resonate deeply in the heart of Welsh identity.
