The British Resistance in Wales

@ Abergavenny Museum The Castle

Imagine what would have happened if the Allies lost at D-Day. How would we react? How would Resistance have been organised? Well imagine no more! In conjunction with the Amit Gupta film, Resistance (based on a novel by Abergavenny born Owen Sheers) the museum is holding a display based on the proposed British Resistance.

Exhibits include costume and art work from the film, alongside artefacts loaned by families of the resistance forces. In addition Coleshill Auxiliary Research Team have produced a documentary about the auxiliary units. It also features artwork by Dan Llywelyn Hall, the resident artist on set - this work is for sale.

The author, Owen Sheers, was brought up near Abergavenny and the book is based in the Olchon Valley. The film stars Andrea Riseborough, Michael Sheen and Tom Wlaschiha.
