The film ‘CONTRABAND’ takes us back to 18th century Ceredigion, where brave and daring smugglers challenged the authority of the Crown. The relentless and unforgiving excise officers, patrol the rocky shores and secluded coves, determined to stamp out the smuggling. 

Despite their efforts, John White known locally as ‘Sion Cwilt’ remains a mysterious and elusive figure, always one step ahead, with his exploits growing more legendary with each passing night.

This film, based on our  Urdd National Eisteddfod winning radio programme, explores the Welsh word “Ysgol,” which means both “school” and “ladder.” 

Through stories, voices, and creative visuals, we show how learning helps us climb life’s ladder. We've transformed the original audio into a colourful and inspiring short film.
