Keepsake

Synopsis

In 1904 the Elan Valley, in Wales, was flooded to create reservoirs for Birminghams's water supply. Many buildings were destroyed and over a hundred people were displaced. Keepsake uses original footage, archive maps, stills and domestic objects; the waters of the reservoir are 'drained' to reveal what was lost.
