The bell ringer

Marc Nicolas is one of the last bell ringers in Belgium. Every day, he rings the Angelus across the meadows and slate roofs of Bellevaux, a small village in the Ardennes. Through this film, he invites us to discover his workplace: a wooden bell tower that houses two large bells, faithful companions of the villagers.
