    Set in the hills of the Welsh border country, this superbly evocative adaptation of Bruce Chatwin`s novel is played with rare conviction.

    Chronicling the bittersweet marriage of a Welsh farmer and an English lady, and the lives of their twin sons across 80 years, it is a film firmly rooted in a landscape made transcendent by the film`s magnificent cinematography.
