In a small north Wales town two teenagers, Ifan and Gwen, find themselves at odds with the established order. Their parents, wearied by the hardship of a world war, appear resigned to the death of the language, the constant emigration in search of work and the drowning of Tryweryn. Welsh politicians appear powerless.
But a new generation walks these hills.
