“What kinds of imaginary and historical resistance run through and link up the different temporalities of a region? In her first feature-length documentary, whose title is inspired by Monique Wittig’ Guérillères, Elsa Brès explores the tales and collective struggles that irrigate the Cévennes landscape, continuing a reflection begun in her installations and previous films. (...)
Devoid of dialogues and giving room for a sensory experience, the mise en scène centres on the lush vegetation and the bodies that live there, weaving a narrative where humans and animals join together to combat capitalism and patriarchy. By opening breaches in time, possible continuities take shape between the struggles of yesterday and those of today, inviting us to imagine other ways of inhabiting the world.”
