Filmed entirely on the island of Skye and set against the backdrop of the stunning Cuillin mountain range, Seachdis the first contemporary feature film to be made in the Gaelic language. It stars celebrated figures from Scotland’s Gaelic community in a tale about the passing down of stories from one generation to another. When Angus’ parents are killed trying to climb Skye’s Inaccessible Pinnacle, he is brought up by his grandfather, amongst the magical stories of the Gàidhealtachd. When his grandfather falls ill, Angus must confront what is just a story, and what is true. This screening will be introduced by Michael Klevenhaus (MA) from the Deutsches Zentrum für Gälische Sprache & Kultur at the Universität Bonn.
