... a must-see for Powell enthusiasts; the visuals are indescribably forceful.

Residents of a small Scottish isle come to terms with the fact that their way of life has come to an end. The seas nearby can no longer provide enough fish to make a living, and their land, having been depleted and eroded, can no longer produce the crops they need to survive. Some very touching moments here but I found that the most interesting parts were the shots of actual Scotsmen going about their daily routines. The film is almost as documentary as it is dramatic. Fascinating to see the way islanders collected shed wool from the sheep or the way they got mail to the mainland by sealing letters in small toy boats and casting them into the sea, hoping that fishing vessels would pick them up and post them. There is as much here for history enthusiasts as there is for movie buffs.

Many props for the film's technical prowess.

Looks like I'm only the second person to review this movie! Powell again excels, directing the tale of the last people to live on a remote Scotish island. It still seems relevant today - people who are caught up in the inevitable change in their culture. Really everyone should watch and get into Powell/Pressburger movies - eg. Matter of Life and Death, Colonel Blimp etc. Great stuff.

sublime footage of shetland. the female lead lacks conviction though there is a nice old fisherman with a great white beard and the clothes and knitted shawls are lovely. *watch the extra 'home video' footage about the director, his dog and hiking pals.-it is well worth it*
