Written by Émilie Deleuze and Marie Desplechin (The Crossing [+leggi anche:

scheda film]), with assistance from Patricia Mazuy, the story recounts how an urban sixty-something who’s happy at home and famous in his field, can risk ruining his life in just a few weeks by presuming to buy a tractor against everyone’s advice: that of his partner, his employer and his neighbour and rival farmer…

Cinq hectares is produced by Patrick Sobelman on behalf of Ex Nihilo and has been pre-purchased by Canal+ and Ciné+. The film benefits from an advance on receipts from the CNC, as well as enjoying further support from the SOFICA companies Cinéaxe and Cinéventure, and the Nouvelle Aquitaine region, where the film will be shot over a seven-week period, with Nathalie Durand (nominated for the 2019 César in her speciality, courtesy of Custody [+leggi anche:
