The 1986 Celtic Film Festival is hosted in Northern Ireland's very own, Newcastle, County Down. This promo shows off the natural beauty of the landscape and the comfortable accommodation guests could look forward to. The romanticism of the county is conveyed through scenes of the Mournes, whilst a poem is read aloud and traditional Gaelic music plays. With no little charm, the promo showcases the County Down in its finest light and transports the viewer back to a simpler time as;      

'In this land, there is time... time to live; time to feel.  

In this land, there is room.... room to relax; room to move.'      

The images in this programme are taken from The Quiet Land created by the Northern Ireland Tourist Board in 1974.                                                                               

The Festival, at its heart, aims to promote the languages and cultures of the Celtic Nations in film, television and radio, and does so with an annual three-day celebration of the broadcasting and film talent from Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Isle of Man, Cornwall and Brittany.
