Gerald of Wales

Historically accurate, cleverly written, and beautifully illustrated, this is the story of Gerald and his page as they seek to summon support for the Crusades. In the process, the program re-creates the people and places of 12th-century Wales. No costume drama has captured the spirit of the Middle Ages so well as this brilliant work of animation has. (25 minutes)
