A SHEPHERD
France 2024 – Director: Louis Hanquet – Original language: French – Subtitles: English – Length: 70 min.
The young shepherd Félix spends the summer months alone with his flock on the remote slopes of the French Alps. By day, he repairs fences, looks after his sheep and reads poetry. At night, an unseen danger slinks silently around his animals: a wolf. Through delicate and impressive observations and against a spectacular mountain backdrop, the film gets close to man and beast.
