I Grombil Cyfandir Pell: American Interior
This documentary follows Welsh musician Gruff Rhys as he sets off on a journey from North Wales to America and across the continent as he follows the footsteps of his distant relative the 18th Century adventurer John Evans. In search of a lost tribe of Welsh-speaking Native Americans, Evans left Wales for America in 1792 with only a $1.75 in his pocket. Alone and without a horse, he walked into the wilderness of the Great Plains and reappeared 7 years later as Don Juan Evans having changed the shape of American history. Fiction, fact, fantasy, myth and music all come face to face, as Gruff Rhys unveils Evans' history in America, the true circumstances of his death and final resting place.
