The Sand Fairy Synopsis
The Psammead is an 'it', an ancient, ill-tempered sand-fairy with a spider-shaped body, bat-like ears, and snail-like eyes. It is grumpy but has the power to grant one wish a day, which must be made before sunset. Five siblings—Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane, and infant Hilary—encounter It and experience the highs and lows of frivolous wish-making. A feature-length edit of the BBC miniseries.
The Sand Fairy (1992) is a adventure, family and fantasy film directed by Marilyn Fox, released on January 1, 1992 with a runtime of 2h 19m. It stars Simon Godwin, Nicole Mowat, Charles Richards and Tamzen Audas.
