Trait de Vie plot
Manu, Lucie, Philippe, Amandine and Martial are farmers but also have other professions. According to some, they do not quite fit in this time and are dreamers or eccentrics. The reason these dock workers, gardeners, foresters and grain farmers use draft animals on the farm is their desire for the quality of life. Their interconnected stories show that work with draft animals is both continued and reinvented in France, a country where agriculture is increasingly mechanized.
