FANEL AND CHABLAIS DE CUDREFIN - WHEN NATURE TAKES BACK ITS RIGHT
Hélène and Nathan, two environmental enthusiasts, set out to discover the natural site "Fanel et Chablais de Cudrefin" and the people who take care of it. Located at the crossroads of several Swiss cantons and languages, this site was the first in Switzerland to be recognized as being of international importance over 45 years ago. Hélène and Nathan discover with wonder how this former landfill for the city of Bern managed to come back to life. Other events, such as the floods of 2021, also hold surprises for us. We discover the beauty and fragility of these natural habitats while becoming aware of the importance of preserving our environment for future generations. A documentary film about the resilience of nature and its ability to regenerate and surprise us.
