A Traveller's Tale by Christopher Sykes
Produced by W. P. Rilla
Immediately after the war Christopher Sykes visited a remote French village to thank the inhabitants for their help to British officers during the German Occupation. But there was a mystery about the place. What was the reason for the suspicion of the villagers? What was the story behind the beautiful old chateau and its aged, dilapidated Count? Why, finally, had the French authorities vetoed the conferring of the King's Medal for Courage on one of the inhabitants? In the attempt to find the answers to these questions this curious and remote corner of France springs to life with all its contradictions, its passions, loyalties, and superstitions; its age-old way of living and thinking.
