Genres: Foreign Cinema, Documentary

Topics: Peasantry.

 

Aroview: A winding, mournful documentary on the stoicism and fading way of life of several generations of farmers and farmer families in contemporary rural France. Depardon's powerful images (he's a photographer of some repute) lend a lyricism and sorrow to the sometimes obstinate interviewees.
