In the presence of the director Dominique Comtat.
Saturday 16 - 10h-10h45: screening of the documentary film "Paroles de pierres" with the voice of Pierre Martel.
“The arrangement of stones is the most enduring of the writings by which man imprints on the landscape the mark of his passage. Durability of stones, transience of beings: after the builders have disappeared, stones continue to tell their story. It is these illiterate narratives that the film offers us to read. Use, culture, know-how... disinheritance, forgetting... renewal? While the images reveal these lapidary testimonies, the sounds bring back a bygone past.”
Véronique BarreSunday 17 - 14h-15h : screening of the documentary film "Gestures of stones": educational work of restoration of a retaining wall in dry stone in the Monts d'Ardèche, led by Louis Cagin, wall.
The film oscillates between dry stone instructions and the poetic beauty of gestures made of strength and meticulousness, patience and precision.
