In her first feature-length documentary, Elsa Brès explores the tales and collective struggles that irrigate the Cévennes landscape, continuing a reflection begun in her installations and previous films. Devoid of dialogue and giving room for a sensory experience, the film centres on the lush vegetation and the bodies that live there, weaving a narrative where humans and animals join together to combat capitalism and patriarchy. By opening breaches in time, possible continuities take shape between the struggles of yesterday and those of today, inviting viewers to imagine other ways of inhabiting the world.
