Living among 8,000 animals in the South of France, Thérèse and Dominique live their passion as herders and breeders. Their philosophy of life makes us reflect on the nature of relationships between humans and animals. For them, life is unimaginable without these relationships. But how do you negotiate life’s passion and philosophy with workers that come and go, 5 children and a reality that challenges your ideals? And finally, what do you do when your passions grow apart?
