Winter Nomads (2012)

Pascal, 53, and Carole, 28, are shepherds. In the month of November 2010, they embark on their long winter transhumance: four months during which they will have to cover 600 km in the Swiss-French region, accompanied by three donkeys, four dogs and eight hundred sheep. An exceptional adventure is about to begin: they brave the cold and the bad weather day in day out, with a canvas cover and animal skins as their only shelter at night. This saga reveals a tough and exacting profession, requiring constant improvisation and unflinching attention to nature, the animals and the cosmos. An eventful journey with surprise encounters, moving reunions with farmer friends, nostalgic figures of country life that is shrinking away fast. Αn adventure film, a contemporary road movie, a reflection of our current world, which takes us back to our roots and our inner questions.

Subtle and wonderous Swiss documentary, following a pair of shepherds as they lead their 800 sheep through valleys during winter. You are there, following them through four months. Told without interviews, narration and barely any expositional conversations, the camera just becomes another one of the flock. We walk with the two through snowy meadows and country roads as they look for fields in which to graze their sheep. We smell the campfires at night and share their watchfulness as they sit and watch the sheep graze in the afternoons. Simple, touching, beautiful. People come into the lives of the shepherds briefly, brightening up the setting with moments of shared food and conversation. Perfect for maintaining the right pace and providing contrast to the quiet life of these two.

An exhilarating vérité work by first-timer Manuel von Stürler, the documentary follows this seasonal migration, or transhumance, with a sense of quiet awe and intimacy, capturing the feel of cold rain, deep snow and the comforting heat of a campfire.

What little we learn of Pascal, who has worked in Switzerland as a shepherd for more than 30 years, and Carole, who is a former dietitian, fits in a scene or two, but their practical journey yields a certain contemplative equanimity.

Riveting and transfixing. Most likely the closest you'll ever come to meeting a shepherd and grasping what it's like to be one.
