This Is Our Land

Synopsis

Director Lucas Belvaux places the rise of France’s far right under his lens in his fictionalized version of the inner workings of the National Front. A single working mother, Pauline (played by the fabulous Emilie Dequenne), attracts the attention of a local far-right party leader, who set their sights on her for candidacy in her working-class region. Apolitical Pauline is attracted to the party’s local proletariat stance, but doesn’t perceive that the strings are being pulled from afar.
