work! work!...

Donald and Morag are in love. But it’s very difficult for them to meet. There’s a great Loch - the Kyle of Tongue - between them, and then tehre’s Morag’s Dad.

Despair drives Donald to enlist the help of the work fairies. They get the lovers together but then won’t leave them in peace. “Obair! Obair!” (“Work! Work!”) they cry. So the harassed couple have to keep finding more and more tasks to keep their little helpers busy.

This film was made in 1998 by Gaelic speaking children and adults from Melnes and Tongue, Sutherland, as part of the “Bog Fliuch” series.
