a film that shows “rurality as it is”, with activist breeder Jérôme Bayle

They will both present it, Tuesday January 13, in preview at the CGR multiplex in Périgueux (Dordogne) and will host a debate. They have started a tour across France, which will continue until its release on March 4. “The welcome is very good. There aren’t many films that show rurality as it is. »

Édouard Bergeon made himself known to the general public with “In the Name of the Earth”, a fiction inspired by his own story and the suicide of his father. Jérôme Bayle experienced the same drama. “It was a kind of mirror, something that encouraged me to go see it,” adds the director.

A media character

Jérôme Bayle operates with his mother Lucienne – for everyone Lulu – the family farm in Montesquieu-Volvestre, in Haute-Garonne.

With his rugby player build and his outspokenness, he established himself at the beginning of 2024 as leader of the agricultural movement which blocked the A 64. He met Prime Minister Gabriel Attal and became a media figure.

“The filming lasted a year and a half. We followed the news throughout the seasons. In a documentary, you have to take the time to observe, to construct the story. The feature film has just finished. We finished filming in September. »

Deeply sincere

It shows Jérôme Bayle in the demonstrations with his tractor and on his farm taking care of his cows. Or even concerned with transmission, showing the work of the land to its small neighbors. He says it himself. Deeply sincere, he wants modern agriculture to live, without forgetting what the ancients knew.
