David

Directed by Paul Dickson

With David Rees Griffiths, Rachel Thomas, Gwenyth Petty, Prysor Williams and Ieuan Rhys Williams

Told with authenticity and perception, David looks back on the life of a school caretaker in a Welsh mining town, from the marriage and birth of his son to the trauma of a pit accident. David was the first film produced by the BFI, in 1951, and the Welsh selection for the same year’s Festival of Britain screenings in London.
