Christianity at Glacier by Halldor Laxness. Translated from the Icelandic by Magnus Magnusson and dramatised by Robert Ferguson.
The Bishop's emissary has been sent to find out why the church has been nailed up, but he discovers The Sagas,
Paganism. Cosmobiology and Jules Verne have more relevance than church-bound Christianity.
Music: Malcolm Clarke.
Director Janet Whitaker
