Profils Paysans 3: La Vie Moderne
Director Raymond Depardon
Countries France
Duration 88 min
Synopsis
A testimony of the farmers and peasants living in the French province, their behaviour and ways of life in their region. Filmed in one year, Depardon travels through places and farms, meeting families and interviewing different characters that are part of a world on the verge of collapse, victim of the generation gap. While showing a natural interest and empathy for the countryside, La Vie Moderne exposes the roots and identity of the rural man, closing a trilogy dedicated to French rural life.
