Diacomédie
Synopsis
It's the story of a human adventure that's been going on for nearly 30 years. The story of a village, the story of a show, and the story of the people who bring it to life. Every four years, in the heart of rural Auvergne, retired workers, schoolteachers and craftsmen become actors, directors, costume designers and set designers for a show entirely written and directed by a retired schoolteacher: La Diacomédie. For almost a year, they write, rehearse, sew and build sets, but above all, they are together.
