This January, Belmond invites you to start the year with a sense of calm and tranquility with the launch of its new film series, ‘Long Shots’. Embracing the ‘Slow TV’ phenomenon, these 60-minute films are crafted for passive viewing and active dreaming, showcasing the stunning sights and sounds of Belmond’s global destinations with exquisite detail. This series reflects Belmond’s commitment to ‘Slow Luxury’, which emphasizes the importance of time and mindful living, providing a fresh perspective on travel.**

‘Long Shots’ immerses viewers into Belmond’s breathtaking locations, starting with Portofino, Rio de Janeiro, Scotland, Sardinia, Amalfi, and Burgundy. These films are best savored on a large screen with the volume elevated, allowing for a full immersion into the serene beauty of each featured locale. In a landscape where social media clips grow shorter and attention spans decrease, the ‘Slow TV’ movement has emerged, having gained traction since its origins in Scandinavia in 2009. It’s been labeled by the New York Times as ‘soothing digital rooms’. These gentle films, whether portraying a crackling fire or gently falling snow, have shown benefits for mental health and concentration.
