Synopsis

"Born in a Field" follows Adrien from childhood to adulthood (played by Bertrand Sautereau and Serge Dominque) as he navigates a difficult life at the start of the 20th century. The film blends his personal development with major political and social events. Adrien's mother dies during his birth, and he's raised by his strict grandfather. As World War I approaches and labor disputes increase, Adrien feels increasingly stifled and leaves home. He finds temporary comfort with another family but discovers his search for meaning continues. Working and finding love, Adrien’s story unfolds against the backdrop of growing tension in Europe before World War II. The film is a moving portrait of one man's life, reflecting the broader social and political struggles of the time during periods of war and unrest.
