Description

Jean De Florette
City-dweller Jean de Florette (Gerard Depardieu) moves his family to the Provence countryside in the 1920s to forge a new life as a farmer. But his proud, cocky neighbouring rival Le Papet (Yves Montand) schemes with his simple-minded nephew Ugolin (Daniel Auteuil) to acquire some nearby land, ensuring the novice owner never discovers an all-important natural spring on the property.
A wholly captivating, emotionally powerful and beautifully photographed classic epic of innocence, evil, greed, envy and revenge.

Manon Des Sources
The equally extraordinary, highly successful and award-winning sequel to Jean De Florette takes up the story of the late Jean de Florette's daughter Manon (Emmanuelle Beart), now grown up into a beautiful and free-spirited young shepherdess on her father's Provence farm. But when she finally learns the tragic truth behind her father's death Manon plots her revenge on the dim-witted Ugolin (Daniel Auteuil) and the scheming La Papet (Yves Montand).
A visual feast containing masterly performances leading to a heart-stopping and totally unexpected conclusion, Manon Des Sources, together with its precursor Jean De Florette, is universally acclaimed as the best French films of the past three decades.

Also includes Germinal and Lucie Aubrac.
