The View From the Hill by MARGARET STEWARD
His family, friends and publisher all prepare to celebrate the 70th birthday of that distinguished poet,
Thomas Fennel. But Tom is not in a mood for rejoicing. His muse has failed him; he has written nothing for years. Now he has reached his allotted life-span, is it likely that the sap will rise again? That inspiration will return?
Directed by JOHN CARDY
