Y Syrcas

The excitement and adventure of the circus comes to life in this heart-warming film for all the family. The film is inspired by a local story about a circus which visited Tregaron in 1848, where an elephant is said to have died and been buried behind a local tavern. Y Syrcas tells the story of Sara, a young girl who is bewitched by the travelling circus folk and its animals - whose arrival opens the door to adventure and opens Sara's heart to the world of her dreams. Sara's preacher father, however, is far from welcoming. When the circus decides to stay for longer than expected, two conflicting worlds collide as tradition and religion come face to face with the exotic strangers and their colourful outlook on life.
