I watched this short film with no real knowledge of the subject matter and was drawn into way more than it advertised right from the start.
A tale that explored the legend of Cu Sith, grief, bravery and hope.
It's enchanting film style, with a fantastic debut performance by Lily, and engaging special effects delivered above and beyond my expectations.
The scenery in Scotland certainly added to the atmosphere.
I would highly recommend that you give it a watch, and keep your eyes open for more from this team, they are bound to produce more films that engage and educate us all about the legends of Scotland.

Sometimes it's amazing how a charming story earnestly told can win you over. It's well acted, lovingly made, and really well written (it won an award for a reason!!) And it made me giggle and teary, so what more could you want? Scottish accents? Magic? Cute dogs? (Guess what...)
I really hope people give this a chance. The main character takes us on an exciting journey with very relatable and well-told mythology. The ending surprised me, the landscapes were gorgeous, and the Spielberg inspired soundtrack was pure joy to listen to.
If the rumours are true and it might be getting a full length feature adaptation, sign me up!!

A lovely, touching and heartfelt fairytale. I was taken on a beautiful journey through Scottish folklore and would love to see more of this filmmaker and a feature film!
The legend of the Cu Sith is new to me and I am hoping to learn more about Scottish folklore. The special effects were charming and made for a magical film. I was completely invested in the story immediately, quite a feat for such a short film.
The young star Lily McGuire was radiant as Vaila and I certainly hope to see more of their work in the future as well. The actor playing the father was also excellent.
A beautifully written and filmed work.
