At the end of the 19th century, a young primary school teacher travels to a remote Alpine region to establish the first school in an ancient mountain town. As new, worldly views collide with the villagers’ culture and elaborate mythology, a natural disaster divides the town. Louise Hémon’s debut feature takes the audience on a surprising ride and powerfully confronts the spectre of gender and sexuality in cultural mythmaking. A selection of the 2025 Cannes Directors’ Fortnight section. A pre-recorded Q&A with Louise Hémon will follow the screening.
