The film is in the English language and was broadcast and screened widely across mainland Europe but, to date, has only been screened privately within the group of Islands often referred to as the British Isles.
The British Isles are also known as The Atlantic Archipelago.
Within The Atlantic Archipelago the film will be screened only once a year for the next nine years.
The screenings will be in nine different locations
The locations have been chosen for the distinct historic language spoken there up to 200 years ago
Most of these languages are still spoken there today
The languages are Cornish, English, Romani, Welsh, Manx, Irish, Lallans, Gaelic and Norn.
The first of these screenings will be in Cornwall this coming Saturday, April 28th:
The Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society
