Miel-Emile plot

Miel-Emile is a son from a child-rich family from Flanders who left for the Pyrenees in southern France after the Second World War, to embrace paradise there. The dictatorial, religious father has bought a mountain there. Through an inner monologue by Miel, the now almost eighty-year-old son, we learn the consequences of that adventure and at the same time get a glimpse into his private life today. In the letters from Miel's mother (voice-over by the granddaughter), the romantic idea of life there is shattered by her words.
