Join us online for the premiere of the beautiful short animated film ‘Time and Tide – 12,000 years on the Gwent Levels’ which recounts the incredible story of the Gwent Levels landscape from its formation at the end of the last Ice Age through to the modern era.  

The film has been created by South Wales video and animation production company Tree Top Films, with a script by local poet and writer Conor Simmons and narration by voice actor Bronwen Price, in Welsh and English.

The history of the Gwent Levels is deeply intertwined with human occupation, from when they were first explored by Mesolithic hunter gatherers to the creation of sea defences and drainage channels which characterise the modern landscape today. The film explores themes of human occupation, landscape engineering and natural forces which have combined to create the unique landscape of the Gwent Levels.

Both English and Welsh versions of the film will be premiered on the Living Levels Facebook page , Living Levels Vimeo channel and right here on our website!
