Wednesday, April 11 was released at the cinema Les Folies fermières which tells how a peasant sets up a "cabaret on the farm" to save his farm.

However, the film is inspired by the experience of Laetitia and David, a “real” couple of Tarn farmers.

“It is thanks to the artists that my farm was saved”

“When I took over the family farm in 2007, it was an operation that was in the final phase, remembers David.

I was the fourth generation to live on this farm and I realized that I was not going to be able to make it.

So to save the last farm in his town of 300 inhabitants, the farmer and his wife imagined the

Les Folies fermières

formula including an educational visit to the farm followed by a dinner-cabaret.

“We can say what we want about the artists, David specifies, it is thanks to them that I saved the farm so I owe them a lot!

We are passionate about our work and they are passionate about theirs.

And it is thanks to the magic of these two trades that meet that we have succeeded”.
