Raymond Depardon’s documentary focuses on the raw reality of manual labor rather than on identity-based stories. It doesn't show diverse representations of race, gender, or sexual orientation, sticking to the demographics of rural French communities. Despite this lack of diversity, the film provides a critical look at the impact of modern capitalism on small-scale producers. It replaces romanticized views of rural life with a realistic portrayal of the challenges faced by workers.
