This multi award-winning production is a story of journeys, of how a boy who grew up on a farm in Galicia (Eastern Poland, now Western Ukraine) came to be a tailor in Inverness. His life spanned most of the 20th century. Audio and video material made on a series of research trips in Poland and Ukraine is incorporated into a detailed overall design.
