France's eternal Province region, with its intricate fabrics and white steeds, is as young-looking as ever. The shadow of writer Frederic Mistral, the 1904 Nobel prize winner, still hovers over the banks of the Rhone River. A journey through space and time, this film reconstructs the history and traditional way of life that are still very much alive in the Provence region. From the "félibrige" linguistic tradition to the election of the Queen of Arles, from the famous Christmas meal to age-old Provençal traditions, viewers will discover the savoir-vivre of the Provençal people and their breathtakingly beautiful countryside.

A film by Jacques Maigne
Directed by Marianne Lamour
