Listing features: Alternative Content

In a Scottish manor on the morning of his wedding, James awakens from a dream to discover a beautiful winged sylph before him.

Entranced by the vision, he attempts to capture her, but she escapes him and vanishes. During the wedding preparations, James hardly notices his fiancée Effie; instead she is wooed by Gurn, whom she ignores.

James joins in the preparations, but gradually he realises that his dreams go far beyond the walls of the manor, and that his obsession with the winged creature risks his own happiness and that of Effie.
