This is the story of Roger, a butcher who worked for 40 years in Beaune, Burgundy, and since his retirement has started a new life as a filmmaker… Roger shoots only on Super 8, he films insects in nature, so to speak “filmed and edited directly”. His short films are a great success and win prizes around the world. His wife plays the role of his muse almost without his knowledge. Roger, suddenly transported to another world, is amused by all this. An important clue: Roger is also my father….
An invitation to a family walk.
