Free Screening: Plant y Rhyfel (Children of the War)

A free afternoon screening for St David’s Day, organised by Welsh Club Preston.

Efaciwis: Plant y Rhyfel

For this new S4C series, eight children from London, Liverpool and Birmingham were filmed discovering what it was like to live away from their families and their homes at the beginning of the Second World War.

While the emotional turmoil experienced by child refugees during World War II could never be recreated, Sian Lloyd, one of its presenters, says throwing the children, aged from nine to 14, into unfamiliar circumstances does give an insight into something hundreds of thousands of children experienced from 1939 through the war years.

Open from 2pm, free entry.
