The Grocer’s Son, the Mayor, the Village and the World

In Lussas, in the South of France, a small group of people has gathered in what used to be the village grocery store. Among the vineyards and orchards of cherry trees in blossom, a business is being set up that is quite unique in the rural world: an ultra-modern platform for broadcasting documentary films on the Internet. Claire Simon delivers a spin-off of nine-hour opus The Village, an exhilarating pilgrimage to the same small-scale Utopia, to deliver a gentle, lucid statement about the beauty of imagining an alternative way of life.
