2015 - France - Couleur - 90'
Under the sun, the heavenly beauty of grasslands will soon be covered by the raging dust of mines. Facing the ashes caused by heavy mining, the herdsmen have no choice but to leave. In the moonlight, iron mines are brightly lit throughout the night. A worker operating the drilling machines is struggling to stay awake. Meanwhile, miners are busy separating the coal from the rock. An endless line of trucks will transport it to the iron works. In a hospital, time hangs heavy on miners’ hands after decades of breathing coal dust.
