VISIONS OF FRANCE: Provence celebrates the timeless charms of one of the French countryside's most popular travel destinations. A helicopter-mounted camera provides dazzling views from the mountains of Luberon to the Grand Canyon of Verdon and more, enhanced by historical narrative and set to regional music.
From Arles to Avignon to Aix, Provence has long been a source of inspiration for great writers and painters - Saint-Exupery ("The Little Prince"), van Gogh, Cézanne and its great Romanesque cities, hilltop towns, bustling fishing ports, summer resorts, vast vineyards, picturesque churches and chateaus are even more irresistible from this new perspective. VISIONS OF FRANCE: Provence showcases the region's distinctive palette, on full display in the untamed Camargue delta where bands of white horses roam and pink flamingoes take flight; over luscious olive groves and lavender fields; or just winding along the Rhône and Durance rivers to the blue Mediterranean.
