Bread-Winning

Immersion and friction between two human worlds at work. While a small group revive traditional bread-making in a hamlet in the Pyrenees mountains, significant amounts of wheat are exchanged at international level by traders from the largest union of French agricultural cooperatives at their Paris headquarters. Bread and wheat represent the plot of an exploration at the same time personal, visual and anthropological of the existential link to labour, to our environment. In this documentary, the discreet hypothesis is that the way we produce and buy our food reveal our anchor into the world, and impacts on environment. In other words, the aesthetics of our daily gestures has ecological effects.
