Overview

Antoine and Olga, a French couple, have been living in a small village in Galicia for a long time. They practice eco-responsible agriculture and restore abandoned houses to facilitate repopulation. Everything should be idyllic but for their opposition to a wind turbine project that creates a serious conflict with their neighbors. The tension will rise to the point of irreparability.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A methodical descent into rural hostility and isolation, where one couple's principled stand against development becomes a crucible for simmering resentment and collective menace. The slow accumulation of threat is as suffocating as the landscape itself.
