There are marvels in Seachd, particularly in the scenery. It's even a little bit enchanting - the old man is an intriguing character and a couple of the fairy tales are interesting enough. But that's where it runs out, really. This is a collection of fairy tales, and mostly they're too childish for an adult audience. The child protagonist is unengaging, and there's not enough plot or characterisation to make a whole film.
I love to see films about places like Skye, and about the social reality of an isolated community with a living but marginalised language. But this isn't enough, and I came away wondering if had the film had been in English, would we ever have heard about it? I guess it's of interest if you're into Gaelic culture or are learning the language. It is a startling backdrop - about 4 of my 6 points are for the scenery alone. That only leaves 2 for plot, characters and everything else - with some regret I say think twice before spending your time watching Seachd.
