Combalimon plot

The French farmer Jean faces an important choice in his life. Lonely, without family, living on a remote farm, he has doubts about his future. He actually does not want to say goodbye to the Combalimon family farm, but he is now 66, his retirement is approaching and taking care of his cows is becoming increasingly difficult. The gray images of winter enhance his gloomy mood, the empty landscapes his loneliness. Once he has made the decision to sell his cows, however, he continues to argue about the price. It is the final convulsion of a man who knows deep down that his fate is inevitable, but cannot accept it.
