La Ferme des Bertrand" by Gilles Perret - 1h 29min
50 years in the life of a farm... Haute Savoie, 1972: the Bertrand farm, a 100-animal dairy farm run by three bachelor brothers, is filmed for the first time. In 1997, as the three farmers were in the process of handing over the farm to their nephew Patrick and his wife Hélène, director Gilles Perret devoted his first film to them. Now, 25 years later, the neighboring director takes up the camera again to accompany Hélène as she, in turn, hands over the farm. Through the words and gestures 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. Free access.
