A fairy is a tiny being with wings that looks like a person but possesses powers of magic and enchantment.

They can also lure humans to their islands where all is happiness and no one ages or gets sick... however, once brought to these mystical places, there is no escape. Join filmmaker John Walker on a quirky and compelling journey through Ireland, England, Scotland and Cape Breton in search of the child's imagination in a rational world. This unique look into the realm of fantasy traces the popular fascination with fairies and is vividly brought to life with gorgeous cinematography and an enchanting soundtrack
