Original Title:

Tortoise In Love

A notable collective effort by the villagers of Kingston Bagpuize and full of corny gags raising gentle smiles, this tale of a bashful gardener besotted with a Polish au pair is a sweet, genial throwback to the romantic comedies of yore.

This gently off-beat romance may boast more corn than a packed silo in summer but it's got a tender heart and charm to spare.
