Farrebique

The story of a family of peasants during a whole year,following the circle game of the seasons . It shows the rural life in France just after WW2 as it was.Not a comfortable one;electricity is coming and it improves a bit their harsh live;the children go to school -but unfortunately,we do not see them at school-;religion plays a prominent part : a scene on the farm shows the whole family praying the Lord;another one takes place in the church where the whole congregation sings the Kyrie in Greek (!) then listens to the priest's Latin words.Life goes on...the father dies ...and the younger son's leaving for the town,for the eldest boy's task is to follow his father's traces whereas the younger's is to move on and set up home somewhere else.
