The Girl From Paris

There's not a lot to say about this film apart from It's one of my all-time favourites. A simple tale of Mathilde Seigner giving up her teaching job in Paris to take up goat farming in the Vacleuse doesn't have much originality but the playing of both leads (the other being the grumpy old ex-owner of the farm who isn't moving out for 18 months) are beautifully realised and make what could easily be a mildly diverting feel good film into a tale that sucks you right into the lives of the protagonists. A perfect film.
