The 1956 Festival of 'The Pearl of the Adriatic'.
A film made by the BBC Television Film Unit in co-operation with Filmske Novosti, Belgrade.
The beautiful walled city of Dubrovnik, formerly Ragusa, and justly known as 'The Pearl of the Adriatic', offers a semi-tropical setting for a unique annual festival of drama, folk-dancing, ballet, opera, and concerts, all held in the open air. This film recalls the varied impressions of five visitors, each with his own memories of sunshine and music.
