"A jagged piece of limestone rock, four-and-a-half miles long, jutting out into a resentful sea."

In view paints a portrait of life on the Isle of Portland, where the chief source of income is the very limestone rock of the island itself, rock which the islands quarry workers tirelessly excavate and process. This beautiful documentary film spends a day on Portland, to learn about its history, its customs and its inhabitants.

Just don't mention rabbits...
