Hedd Wyn
Wales - 1992
Directed by Paul Turner
Beautiful scenery and fine details in costumes and sets compliment this sentimental story about a young man who reflects on his brief adulthood as he lies wounded on a battlefield in WW1. A poet, he has entered the competition for the Chair of the National Eisteddfod, a century old tradition and the most coveted prize in Welsh poetry. He is called to war before the results of the competition are announced, leaving his family behind to receive the news.
The Welsh music is heavenly. Hedd Wyn was nominated for an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film (1994).
