"In Search Of Gareth Hughes" wins major award
The film won Best International documentary at the recent International Youth and Christian film festival at Barry, South Wales
The film traces the long journey of Kelvin Guy in tracking down still living individuals who remembered his relation, Gareth Hughes – Wales’ very first Hollywood Movie star.
Three years in the making and capturing interviews with surviving Native Americans and discovering lost relations in the United States, the film is both a personal memoir and an important historic document.
The Jury was impressed by the huge research undertaken by Mr. Guy and the fact he had never previously made a film.
