Pierre Creton makes films. But he also takes care of the garden and makes honey… As he says, he moved from peasant-filmmaker to gardener-filmmaker. In his house in Vattetot-sur-Mer, he speaks about himself and his work, about the people he met who made him who he is, about the journeys with his companion Vincent, some of them at the end of the world. Françoise Lebrun is at his side. He discovered her in La maman et la putain, by Jean Eustache, and then she became part of his universe. An attentive portrait of the filmmaker at his home in Normandy, during the preparation of the new feature film.
