La brèche de Roland
Roland has decided to climb the pass in the Pyrenees where he was apparently conceived and after which he is named. He is accompanied by his wife and teenage son and daughter. Tensions rise, they lose each other. Then night falls… Charming tale with the ambition and range of a featurette, making masterful use of the location and with beautiful photography. The well-known Mathieu Amalric plays Roland, the rest of the cast is made up of non-professional actors.
