SYLVIA is the filmed version of Sir Frederick Ashton's ballet that was performed at the Royal Opera House, interspersed with some commentary by Darcey Bussell and interviews with set designers and performers like Christopher Newton. It tells the story of Sylvia, one of Diana's nymphs, whom both Orion and a young shepherd called Aminta fall in love with.
