(Italy/2005—Giorgio Diritti)

A French shepherd, his wife, their two daughters and his goats transfer to Chersogno, a small village in the Occitan Alps. The inhabitants of the village, after a warm welcome, begin to feel uncomfortable by the presence of the new arrivals.  Jealously and incomprehension prevail and coexistence becomes more difficult. The original title, in the Occitan language, is E l'aura fai son vir, because, as a character describes at the beginning of the film, "things are like the wind, sooner or later they return."
