Based on Ronald Blythe's acclaimed oral-history book 'Akenfield: Portrait of an English Village', Peter Hall's extraordinary, long-unseen film offers a lyrical yet authentic depiction of British pastoral life.

'Akenfield' tells the story of a farming family who have lived for generations in the bucolic Suffolk village of the film's title. Real-life local farmhand Garrow Shand gives a compelling naturalistic central performance, in three roles, as farmhand Tom Rouse, his father and grandfather - a lineage which has experienced hardship, happiness and love, and struggled with the pressures of mechanisation, two world wars and shifting social mores. A profoundly romantic work of sublime poetic realism, Akenfield boasts compelling performances from its cast of non-professional actors (drawn from the living communities of several Suffolk villages) and a sweeping, rhapsodic orchestral score composed by Michael Tippett (Fantasia Concertante on a Theme of Corelli).
