Woods Dreams are Made Of
Claire Simon
2015 - 146 min - HD - Couleur - France, Suisse

There are days when one is fed up with the city, when your eyes can’t stand seeing any more buildings and your ears have had enough of the sound of motors... Then you leave. You move from the pavement to the path, and here we are in the wood. The noise of the town becomes distant, we are in a very far meadow. It’s the country, the forest, childhood that returns. You believe you are there. It is a true illusion, an untouched world at an arm’s length, a place for all, rich and poor, French and foreign, homos and heteros, elderly and young, old fashioned and mod. Paradise regained? Who knows?
