Christian Guillon

A film about the rebellion that took place in the French department of Ariège from 1829 to 1832, and continued in a less intense fashion until 1872.

Old Victor discovers, while plowing his field, three gold nuggets. The villagers, quickly aware of this, came running, shovels and picks in hand. Victor takes the opportunity to rest. At the end of the third day, the field is ready to be sown. The gold nuggets are in their place... in their little black box.
