Skath
The Cornish Pilot Gig
Back to shortlistSet on the stunning coasts of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, this Kernewek language documentary explores the revival of Cornish pilot gig racing, perhaps the fastest growing water sport in contemporary Britain, in the company of Pol Hodge, poet and newcomer to this exhausting activity.
Can Pol overcome a lifetime of sloth to gain a place in the World Championships in just six months?
Irreverent yet full of poetry, amongst some of the most beautiful locations in the world Skath shows us a streamlined snapshot of contemporary Kernow through the lens of the world of the Cornish pilot gig.
