How did a group of isolated farmers, clueless about
politics, manage to win a fight against the French government's decision to
extend a military camp over their land? Deep in the French countryside, 103
families made an oath to unite and defend their land. As a result, this small
area became the birthplace of the anti-globalization movement in France. Yet
they did not use weapons to defend themselves, only tractors and sheep. This
documentary focuses on the inhabitants' 10-year long struggle for justice and
freedom.

1638, the year Louis XIV was born –his second name, Dieudonné, alluding to his God-given status– saw the diffusion of a cult of maternity encouraged by the very devout Anne of Austria, in thanks for the miracle by which she had given birth to an heir to the French throne. Simon François de Tours (1606-1671) painted the Queen in the guise of the Virgin Mary, and the young Louis XIV as the infant Jesus, in the allegorical portrait now in the Bishop’s Palace at Sens.
