Info

In 1976 Peter Adam took Lawrence Durrell author of several Greek Island books, back to Greece. Their journey took them to Corfu, Rhodes, Crete and Hydra. Durrell has often said that words alone cannot express the true nature of Greek landscape and village life. In this film he pushes aside the debris of the present and guides us through the Greece of his youth. In a sequel to the Greek Spirit of Place, Peter Adam takes Lawrence Durrell back to the setting of his four famous novels. The journey starts in Alexandria and follows the Nile to Upper Egypt, to Aswan and Abu Simbel. Durrell revisits the Coptic monasteries of Wadi Natrun, the oasis of Fayum, Luxor and the Valley of the Kings. He talks about his beliefs, his craft and his experiences as a writer, and evokes Egypt's two landscapes - the desert and the great river.

Spirit Of Place Audience Reviews

Diagonaldi Very well executed
Buffronioc One of the wrost movies I have ever seen
Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
