| Summary |
For most of us Provence conjures up lazy afternoons in the sunshine with a chilled glass of wine, fields of aromatic herbs, lavender, sage and rosemary and the glamorous beaches of Cannes or St. Tropez.But this stunningly beautiful documentary takes us on a journey few tourists have discovered, showing us the real wild heart of Provence. From the rocky, limestone terrain of the north where Chamois graze on plants on perilous cliffs to the wetlands in the south where the river Rhone meets the Mediterranean.We meet Provence's people who live hand in hand with the wildlife, the guardians of both its exotic creatures and its landscape.Become immersed in the sun-drenched landscape that could easily be Eden, a lost world full of rare and beautiful creatures right in the heart of modern Europe.PRODUCTION DETAILS:BBC FOUR production. Producer Mark Flowers, executive producer Fiona Pitcher, narrator Holly Aird |
