Daniela Domingos

The Old Tosser

SYNOPSIS

Modern Day, Wales, the evening before May 1st. Mari (16) listens bored as her grandmother, Noni, tells her a tale of May Eve, the time of the year where the veil between the human and the spirit world is at its most thin, and young girls should stay inside. Mari, once scared by these stories, is now older and unaffected, she intends to go out.
Our story follows Mari as she sneaks out of her bedroom and unwittingly into a world of goblins, fairies and witches. Our story subverts traditional Welsh folklore to explore themes of sexism, male violence and female solidarity.
