A series of four personal journeys.
2: Half a World Away. Award-winning poet Owen Sheers grew up in Wales but was born in Fiji in 1974. In accordance with local tradition his umbilical cord was buried under the roots of a coconut tree, a practice which is said to guarantee the person's return to the land of their birth. As he travels through Fiji's lush interior and coral-fringed coast, he finds himself following in the footsteps of another young poet who fell in love with the islands, Rupert Brooke.

Britain" that resides in the imaginations of a small number of French students, whose impressions of the country may spring from one memorable day, an unforgettable year, a bit of pop music or a television show seen on European cable.
