Priest Synopsis:These Canterbury Tales are Geoffrey Chaucer's stories updated to the present day. Producer Kate Barlett wanted to remain as faithful as possible to the spirit of the original tale. Each tale was scripted by a different writer and like the original tales they embody the timeless themes of love, lust, greed, power, anger and bigotry. This DVD Set contains the following 4 films: The Miller's Tale: John is the owner of a pub and Bed and Breakfast. The pub has a regular karaoke night and his very young wife Alison is the star attraction. One night a stranger, Nick arrives in the pub claiming to be an agent who will be able to make Alison a big star. However is Nick's interest really in Alison's popstar career or has he other plans for Alison? The Wife of Bath: Beth is a glamorous and successful soap star, who has been married several times. Now she is 53 years old and married to James. She is devastated when James tells her he is leaving her for a another less glamorous woman. So, she arranges a sex scene with her 19 year old co-star Jerome. They begin a relationship, but can Beth continue to keep Jerome interested in spite of their age difference? The Sea Captain's Tale: Jetender and Meena are celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary. A man called Dillip knocks on the door and gives Meena a letter. This is a final demand for £11,000 of jewellery, which Meena has bought on credit. Meena is told that she will have to pay the bill by the end of the week. She knows that she can't ask her husband for the money, so she begins an affair with his business partner Pushpinder and persuades him to get the money for her, telling him that her husband is a tyrant. He pretends to Jetender that he needs the money for home improvements. However, Pushpinder falls in love with Meena and wants more than just a physical relationship. One night when drunk, because Meena continually refuses to give him children, Jetender tells Pushpinder that Meena has had affairs with many men who gave her money so she could indulge in her shopping habit. Pushpinder decides to get revenge, so what will happen to Meena? The Man of Law's Tale: Mark finds Constance, a refugee from Nigeria, hiding in a small boat, which has been washed up on the shore. He takes her back to his wife Nicky, who decides to befriend her and not to report her to the Home Office. Constance is a Christian, who has had a traumatic experience back home. At first she finds comfort and fellowship in the local church, until she is pursued by church member Terry. Mark and Nicky's friend Alan is also attracted to Constance, though his mother doesn't like the idea of them being together. Constance has flashbacks to something that happened in Nigeria. We see Alan's life in the future, where he is desperately looking for Constance in Nigeria. At what point did Alan and Constance lives become intertwined and what separated them? Will they both have a happy ending? US/CANADA/MEXICO BUYER WARNING o WARNING: Please note that we sell NTSC/Region 1 DVDs from USA and PAL/Region 2&4 DVDs from other countries.
