Comprising a part of the admirable Globe Trekker series, known for its rich historical and cultural journeys, this particular adventure focuses on the islands of Corsica, Sicily, and Sardinia, each with its distinct identity and charm.

As the movie begins, viewers are introduced to the island of Corsica, famously known as the Isle of Beauty. Nestled in the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean Sea, Corsica is a paradise that offers a range of experiences, from rugged mountain ranges and dense forests to pristine beaches. The film delves deep into Corsica’s rich history and its age-old connection with France.

The viewers are treated to the mystical nuraghe, Bronze Age towers and settlements unique to Sardinia, the vibrant murals in the town of Orgosolo, and the Sardinian cuisine that is as tempting as the island's natural beauty.

There's also an opportunity to appreciate the locals' slower pace of life, the pastoral traditions preserved over the millennia, and the enduring Sardinian pride that feels so distinctive, so separated from mainland Italy.
