Haunting, romantic and thrilling, Photographing Fairies is the unforgettable story of one man’s journey to disprove the supernatural. Still scarred by the loss of his wife, jaded photographer Charles Castle (Toby Stephens, Die Another Day) travels to a remote English village to debunk two girls’ claims of being able to photograph fairies. But as he delves deeper into the mysterious origins of the widely popular shots, he finds himself trapped in a web of passion and intrigue that may prove impossible to escape. Co-starring Ben Kingsley (House of Sand and Fog) and Edward Hardwicke (Elizabeth), it’s a mesmerizing fantasy based on true events.

First-time director Nick Willing can't seem to figure out what to do upon finally reaching fairyland, and thus Ben Kingsley's sketchy character arbitrarily mutates into an ill-motivated antagonist.

It's imaginatively shot and features some nifty special effects.

Marred by an uninvolving, foggy script that aims to tackle other issues, including postwar loss of faith and hope, and by some eccentric characterizations, notably by Ben Kingsley.

Ken Hanke

A quiet, stately little film, with a handful of brilliant sequences, an intriguing premise and solid performances all down the line.

A fresh, rewarding film, intelligent and very beautiful.
