The 800th National Eisteddfod takes place in Cardigan during the dry, dusty summer of 1976 and draws thousands, as usual. This film features 3 emigrants, or descendents of emigrants, who come anxious to reconnect with the homeland; 2 bards – Dic Jones and Alan Llwyd - competing for chair and/or crown, and 3 tenors. Rugby player Gareth Edwards is received into the Gorsedd of Bards, and Côr Godre’r Garth from Pontypridd celebrate their singing success in the Poppit Club.
