About this movie

In the stark beauty of 19th Century Snowdonia a young girl, Gwen, tries desperately to hold her home together. Struggling with her mother's mysterious illness, her father's absence and a ruthless mining company encroaching on their land, a growing darkness begins to take grip of her home, and the suspicious local community turns on Gwen and her family. 'Gwen' is a bold, dark and atmospheric folk tale from exciting new British filmmaker William McGregor with a breakout performance from rising star Eleanor Worthington-Cox ('Maleficent') alongside Maxine Peake ('Funny Cow'), Richard Harrington ('Hinterland'), Kobna Holdbrook-Smith ('Mary Poppins Returns') and Mark Lewis-Jones ('Star Wars: The Last Jedi').
