Gato

An unusual love story set in the Middle Ages, “Gato” is the story of a young child brought up in a mill. The quiet hardworking lives of the people at the mill are disturbed by the arrival of a wandering Spanish Friar. What is going on between the miller and his wife, and the Friar? The child at the centre of the story tries to understand. The only creatures the child is close to are the mill cats. After the Friar’s stay, there is always one called Gato, Spanish for ‘cat’.
