Bothan air a' Phreiridh/Cabin on the Prairies

Bheir dithis charaid turas gu pr猫iridh Chanada gu cridhe sgaradh teaghlaich an duine. Iain MacPherson takes his friend Ewen MacKay on a journey to the Canadian prairies.

Bheir Iain Mac a' Phearsain a charaid E貌ghann MacAoidh air chuairt dhachaigh thar astar is 霉ine gu pr猫iridh Chanada: gu falamhachd is f脿s aig cridhe nan sgaraidhean is nan sgeulachdan teaghlaich aig an dithis aca. A' t貌iseachadh ann an Sl猫ite, bheir iad cuairt air Beinn nam Faghla mus gabh iad a-mach dhan iar: gu d霉thaich bhuan an arbhair is nan rodeo air lorgan m脿thair E貌ghainn, Bealag a rugadh thall is a thill a-nall, is a h-athair Seonaidh Paterson, an Cowboy Gaidhealach fh猫in.

Iain MacPherson takes his friend Ewen MacKay on a journey home over space and time to the Canadian prairies - to the emptiness and growth at the heart of family stories and separations. Beginning in Sleat, they visit Benbecula before heading west, to the endless land of wheat and rodeos on the trail of Ewen's mother, Bealag, who was born overseas and returned over here, and her father Seonaidh Paterson - the Gaelic cowboy himself.
