Narrated by Michael Flanders.
Why is Cornwall different? What is it about its history and people, their customs, superstitions and, legends that has given the peninsula a feeling that it is almost a foreign country?
Daphne du Maurier's vivid and highly individual film, directed by her son, illustrates and illuminates the answers to these questions and gives us a vision of this beautiful county as it was, and to some extent still is, before commercialism destroys its magic.
