We Went Looking for Britain's Lost Christian Soul

 

Jul 21, 2026

In this documentary, we travel across Britain in search of the Christian vision that once shaped our world — a land where the lives of the saints pointed beyond themselves, where creation spoke of its Creator, and where the ordinary was alive with the presence of God. We visit places like Iona, Lindisfarne, Whitby and Walsingham to see if that way of seeing can still be recovered today. Or has modernity left us as tourists amongst the ruins of a world long gone? Back into Enchantment is part travel documentary, part pilgrimage, and part personal exploration of faith. Along the way we visit the landscapes of St Cuthbert, St Aidan, St Hilda, St Columba and the Shrines of Our Lady of Walsingham, asking what they might still have to teach us about following Christ in the twenty-first century. Whether you’re a Christian, or fascinated by history, symbolism, pilgrimage, and the spiritual heritage of Britain, I hope this film gives you something to think about.
