Yr Awdl
Dinas (City) is film inspired by a breathtaking poem by Tudur Hallam that touched the heart of a nation and won its author the most prestigious competition – the Chair at the Eisteddfod. His brave creative response to his terminal cancer diagnosis, still fighting the cancer and not sure if he would be around for the Eisteddfod. Now, this most emotional poem has been made into a film, by Tudur’s brother Gwion Hallam. Performed by actor Simon Watts it's a beautiful collaboration between poet and filmmaker. It’s about a poet's refusal to be silenced. Breathing his only tomorrow in words.
