Welcome to the Ariana Film Company England! We are back in dear old England after several years away filming in Nepal, India, and Europe, we are back to film the inaugural pilgrimage on the Great English Way, a modern cultural, historical, and spiritual pilgrimage on Ancient paths. We are creating a digital cultural archive of the people, places, and landscape of England, to uncover the true soul of the land, all wrapped up in a 350 mile walk which begins at the historical naval town of Falmouth, at Pendennis castle built by Henry VIII and passes through 22 stops to the spiritual centre of England, Canterbury Cathedral.

Alan who is the principle filmmaker will be walking the path with his backpack, film equipment, his labrador Hari, and his dog stroller as he injured his paw on broken glass in Falmouth 2 months ago while we were planning the film! He is on the mend but is still in recovery!

If you see a man with a big backpack and a film camera, a golden labrador, and a stroller with a flag on it. Stop and say hi! We are looking for interesting stories from people who live on the path or were born in the area and will be stopping at the following towns/cities
