Sri Lanka is a land of pilgrimage and to understand its heritage two villagers - an elderly teacher of 68 and a schoolboy of 11 -take the advice of their priest and go on a journey to discover for themselves the glories of their ancient history and the progress their ' Resplendent Island' is making towards a self-sufficient future.
