Monday 17 July at 8 pm: “The man who planted trees”, text by Jean Giono
Performer: Camille Voyenne
A proposal by the Collectif Champ Libre
While walking for three days in the arid and deserted hills of the south of France, a young man meets a solitary shepherd. This simple man is called Elzéard Bouffier. He lives humbly with his dog and his flock of sheep. He has no great occupation, but his mission is to bring life back to this region which is dying of drought. To do this, he plants trees.
Camille Voyenne, an actor from the Champ Libre collective, is undertaking a walking tour this summer from Saint–Junien (87) to the Festival de la Luzège. A journey of more than 250 kilometres where he proposes at each stage the reading of L‘homme qui plantait des arbres by Jean Giono. Through this long walk, he wants to rediscover the sensations of the narrator and thus transmit this story in the most sensory way possible. Yes, with tired muscles, a heart full of nights under the stars and eyes full of the sounds of the forest…
