Few modern nations have managed to maintain their rustic beauty and charm as well as Ireland, and this documentary video takes the viewer on a tour of the mysterious and inspiring land. Ireland's rugged cliffs, lush plains, striking castles, and homey pubs are captured on film as some of Ireland's greatest musical talents -- traditional folk group The Chieftains, flutist James Galway, and singer/composer Enya -- create a musical background as enchanting as the visuals they accompany. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

This disc consists of glorious images from Ireland set to the music of The Chieftains, Enya, and others. The DVD offers a standard full-frame transfer. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. There are neither subtitles nor closed captions on this release. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, but this Image title should still satisfy those that enjoy these types of discs. There is little here, however, for the average DVD consumer. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
