Fairytale


The second film in as many weeks to examine the strange case of the two little girls who claimed to see fairies, and produced photos to back up the claims. (For more on the historical background, see our comments for ''Photographing Fairies''.

This version takes a more historically accurate look at the events, and follows the unfolding drama from claim to counterclaim to denouncement. Critics preferred this film to the other.
