After WWI, many flemish farmers left Belgium to go to France. They were looking for a better future by cultivating bigger farms. This is my grand parents' story that I never got the chance to question about this. About to be ancient history, I decide to meet the last witnesses to sease what remains. Through a territory, a century, « A quest for earth » invites us to meet six belgian descendants that have kept traces of this inside them. After so many years, what can they pass on of the past ?
