This beautiful meditation on culture, roots and identity interweaves two journeys. In the first, insecure, uptight Rhys drags his girlfriend off to Patagonia so he can photograph disused chapels in exotic locations, where Gwen soon falls into the arms of their gorgeous guacho guide (Matthew Rhys) – and who could blame her? Meanwhile Patagonian Grannie Cerys fools her grandson Alejandro into accompanying her to Wales to find the farmhouse her mum was forced to leave when pregnant with Cerys. The meandering journeys are enlivened by Evans’ fine eye for both landscapes, and his intelligent reflections on contemporary Wales and its place in the world.
