Film Description

When Pericles discovers the answer to King Antiochus's riddle he flees for his life. In self-exile from Tyre he encounters famine, shipwreck, love and fatherhood, but in his desire to return home he once again jeopardises his own life and those he loves. A great cast make light of the play's traditional staging problems and craft a compelling performance.
