Amandine Barat is the daughter of a worker from the Loire; Johan Oger and Fabien Rollet live and work on the Loire. All shared their lives with the royal river.
They started from an observation published by WWF, in a report to living planet in 2020 which highlighted an 84% decrease in the number of vertebrates in freshwater environments since 1970.
The three naturalists leaned “on the parameters which have turned the river and its tributaries upside down over the last 50 years”. They listened to professional fishermen recount the upheaval of their profession. They interviewed farmers and the head of the Mauges community water cycle center. And to complete their documentary, they approached the CEN (Conservatory of Natural Spaces) and the actors of the Bocage Mission. “This documentary is a cry of warning, we need to share it. »
This documentary paints a complex and disturbing portrait of the Loire Valley. It is entirely self-financed, and carried out solely with the energy of their passion and that of their interlocutors.
Thursday November 28, 50 years laterat 8 p.m., in the cinema space and as part of documentary month, this film will be followed by a debate with the three directors.
