Manon of the Spring
They destroyed her father. Now they offered her love. But the only thing she desired was revenge.
Directed by Claude Berri
Produced by DD Productions, Films A2
A melancholic revenge drama set in sun-drenched Provence, where a young woman's quest for justice against her father's betrayers unfolds against the beauty and moral complexity of rural life.
In this, the sequel to Jean de Florette, Manon has grown into a beautiful young shepherdess living in the idyllic Provencal countryside. She plots vengeance on the men who greedily conspired to acquire her father's land years earlier.
