- Synopsis
- Follows the lives over one year, shot during three intervals, of two Basque shepherding families who live in Santazi, a village in the foothills of the French Pyrenees.

The traditional life of shepherding is also changing amidst the conflict of interest between those who have formed a syndicate in an effort to maintain the viability of shepherding and the sons who are taking jobs as linesmen for the electricity company.
