A series of six films on the growth of the new nationalism in Europe.
Brittany is a Celtic land of pagan sites and Christian saints. This century the carnage of two World Wars and the haemorrhage of rural depopulation drastically reduced the Breton-speaking population, but the last two decades have witnessed a cultural renaissance stretching from nursery school to university. Perversely, this revival has not produced a political parallel. There is a divided response to President Mitterrand's promise to establish a Breton Assembly.
