FRANCE SEEN FROM ABOVE

Mission preservation

An episode from the series FRENCH HERITAGE JOURNEYS

Synopsis

The peaks of France tell another story, that of rooftops, summits, and the craftsmen who inhabit them. From Paris to Mont Blanc, from the Loire Valley to Normandy, this film is a journey suspended in the heights of heritage.

Roofers, ornament makers, and refuge wardens uphold rare skills that shape the soul of the country and watch over its wonders from above.
