Nana

Nana is a girl of four. She lives somewhere in the French countryside. The house is beyond the forest and built of stone. There are no other children around. Her days pass with her mother and her grandfather. The grandfather is a man of few words. He keeps pigs on the farm. Nana spends most of her time outdoors. She comes to know nature in its beauty and its harshness. One day she comes home from school. When she goes in she finds nobody. Inside there is only silence. What follows is the time the girl spends on her own. The camera often sits at her eye level. Kelyna Lecomte and Marie Delmas take the leads in Valérie Massadian’s French film of 2011.
