Gardarem les choucas !*

Blurring the lines between documentary and fiction, HITCHCOCK IN UZÈS follows Alphonse as he embarks on a challenging quest to locate and tame a jackdaw. His investigation immerses him in the rural life of Uzès and its surrounding villages, bringing him into contact with local residents and businesses. Through his humorous and eccentric journey, Alphonse explores rural gentrification and offers a critical reflection about the transformation of this tiny little town into a tourist destination and a retirement home for wealthy seniors from all over Europe. This evolution is advocated with remarkable doublespeak by the city’s officials. A unique exploration of jackdaws on the run.

The film is available for streaming on cinémutins (english version available).
