Summary

Pathe synopsis: Fly with us to a warmer corner of this colourful world. Fly with us to Sardinia. There, take a boat from Alghero, on the island’s west coast, to Neptune’s Grotto - a treasure-cave of mineral stone that thrusts out of the warm Mediterranean and tunnels into the land. See Garibaldi’s tomb on Caprera. See, at Toralba, the largest of the island’s nuraghi - forts that date back to Roman times. But, above all, discover the people of Sardinia - gentle people who work in the sun and slowly live into each new day.
