An intimate portrait of traditional life in the Pyrenees Mountains following a dozen shepherds and peasants in the cycle of a year. They tell us about the harshness and wisdom of the past, the great significance of nature and the threat of the economic and environmental crisis. The wheel of time is unstoppable, everything is destined to change, so we must know where we are coming from to know where we are headed.
