Kid Cymru, Byw i reslo

My Role: Executive ProducerClient: S4C HanshYear: 2022

The Brief

Hansh commissioned a short documentary that would tell an unexpected Welsh story. The brief called for a subject with a compelling dual life, someone whose passion sits in sharp contrast to their everyday existence.

Approach

Tinint followed Gethin Williams as he balanced his work as an electrician with his alter ego Kid Cymru on the Welsh wrestling circuit. The documentary captured the physicality, dedication and community of independent wrestling, all through a distinctly Welsh lens.

Outcome

The film delivered a warm, engaging portrait that resonated with Hansh's audience, proving that Welsh-language documentary can find rich stories in the most unexpected places.
