The series is directed by Ashley Way and stars Mark Lewis Jones (Troy, Master and Commander), Nia Roberts (Daddy’s Girl, Solomon and Gaenor), and Rhian Morgan (Black Dog, A Mind to Kill).

 


Spring 1914 - Tom Evans invites fellow Oxford student Edward to holiday on his parent's farm in Wales. But his father Josi has left wife Rachel for the local school teacher, the lovely Myriam, who is pregnant with his child. Tom's sister Catrin feels outraged and betrayed. When she finds her own passion for Edward, emotions are laid bare as each searches for a way to unlock a captive heart in a rapidly changing world.

Produced by Richard Staniforth of Green Bay Media in Cardiff for the Welsh network S4C, this is a beautifully filmed TV drama shot on location in glorious Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire, Brecon, Glamorgan and Oxford which will enchant our Canadian viewers.
