Synopsis

50 years in the life of a farm... Haute Savoie, 1972: the Bertrand farm, a dairy farm with around a hundred head of cattle run by three single brothers, was filmed for the first time. In 1997, director Gilles Perret made his first film about them as neighbours, just as the three farmers were in the process of handing over the farm to their nephew Patrick and his wife Hélène. Now, 25 years later, the director-neighbour takes up the camera again to accompany Hélène as she, in turn, passes on the reins. Through the words and actions of the people who have succeeded each other, the film reveals a deeply moving life story in which work and transmission play a central role: an intimate, social and economic history of our farming world.
