An impressionist painting of Great Longstone in Derbyshire. In the centre of the village, at the café-grocery shop and at the butcher’s, the people pass by, meet and exchange news. The eternal charm of the English countryside: old photographs showing the village as it appears today, nothing or virtually nothing has changed. But snatches of conversation evoke the evolution of the inhabitants’ different interests and concerns.
