BELLE ET SÉBASTIEN
synopsis
Our story takes place high up in the alps. There where the snow is immaculate, where chamois chase marmots, where the summits touch the clouds. High up in a peaceful village - until the day the Germans arrive. It's the story of a lonely boy and a wild dog. The story of Sébastien who tames Belle. It's the adventure of an indestructible friendship. It's the extraordinary tale of a resourceful and appealing child in the middle of World War Two. It's the odyssey of a little boy searching for his mother, of an old man searching for his past, of a member of the Resistance searching for love, of a young woman looking for adventure, of a German lieutenant searching for forgiveness. It's the life of Belle and Sébastien…
