Camping du lac

In the Summer of 2022, the director Eléonore Saintagnan shot her new film in Brittany, the mid-length film “Camping du lac” (then entitled “Le Fléau”). The film was backed by the Centre du Cinéma de la Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles with the limited budget fund. This is how Eléonore Saintagnan came to take part in Groupe Ouest Développement workshop – Scénario : puissance & âme – for “Camping du lac”.

Synopsis

Éléonore drove west to escape her city life. She breaks down in the middle of “Kreiz Breizh” (center of Brittany), in a village that bears her last name. She thinks it’s a sign. She rents a bungalow there, in a campsite overlooking the lake.
The places bring back memories of her childhood. As a child, she spent her holidays in a similar place. Through a walk in these isolated places and to meet its inhabitants, from mobile home to mobile home, she observes the present, convokes the past and lets herself be invaded by fiction.
