Le Ventre de la Montagne plot

With the infamous plane crash of Germanwings in 2015, a remote town in the French Alps suddenly became world news. Filmmaker Stephen Loye, who lives in the area, sheds a poetic and philosophical light on that event – with a radically different approach than we know from the media. On the tape, anonymous voices talk about the media frenzy in their town, about the hundreds of death certificates that had to be signed and about other disasters in recent history that caused large numbers of victims. Meanwhile, Loye's voice makes free associations, musing about mortality and the value of a human life.
