John Galsworthy is one of the best selling authors of the 20th Century, winning a Nobel prize for literature. Most famous for the Forsyte Saga, he was also a campaigner for a number of humanitarian causes. These eight short films, supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund and produced by Digital Drama, are taken from the audio/visual exhibition at the Rose Theatre.
