A young gay hustler from South Wales, Dafydd is working in Amsterdam where he meets David, a music lecturer also from Wales. Two kindred spirits in a foreign land. Originally aired as episode 2, series 3, of the television program "Wales Playhouse".
Acting
Harrington's guarded vulnerability carries every frame.
Cinematography
Amsterdam glows with alien warmth, neither home nor escape.
Writing
Dialogue sparse as poetry—every silence speaks Welsh.
Director
Ceri Sherlock
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of S4C's 'Wales Playhouse' strand, one of few 1990s British TV dramas centering working-class queer Welsh experience without moralizing.
Richard Harrington would later star in 'Hinterland'; director Ceri Sherlock largely stopped directing after this, making it a haunting one-off.
