Quand l'art partage les eaux (DVD)

An invisible line separates the Mediterranean basin from the Atlantic basin: it is the watershed that has slowly shaped, century after century, the landscape we admire today. It has carved out valleys, outlined slopes, flattened ridges, and determined roads and trails. It naturally inspired an artistic journey along the GR7 hiking trail in the Monts d'Ardèche Regional Natural Park. There, a dozen permanent works examine the global issues raised by the watershed. The question of water, its quality, its preservation, and its sharing is directly linked to the threat of climate change caused by human activity. In the film, narrated by Charles Berling, we follow Eric, an art and nature enthusiast, throughout this journey to discover both the works and this territory. The artists, scientists, and project stakeholders give us keys to understanding and interpreting the territory alongside residents and visitors who share their feelings with us. This geographical border does not divide but connects people. It includes them in the water cycle, emblematic of both this territory and major global issues.
