Oh right it's Sri Lanka!, 24 June 2003

Ah now this look on work by the British overseas was one the GPO Film Units finest pieces of work (along with Night Mail)

I sensed that there was more love, care and ambition was put into this project!

If you're not a student of film or the media in general the odds of watching this are very low... however I much suspect anyone reading this is doing research about the GPO!!!!

A better documentary!
