Mathyas dreams of becoming a shepherd. He leaves Montreal and his job in marketing behind and moves to Provence in France. But starting out in this ancient profession is tough: there are only a few vacancies and life as a shepherd is anything but easy ... A wonderful homage to one of mankind's oldest professions.

However, the harsh reality of the shepherd's world forces him to question his romantic notion of this profession. He is also not taken seriously by the local population. A visit from Élise, a civil servant who has decided to quit her job, gives Mathyas' search a new direction. Together, they set off on their wanderings with a huge flock of sheep under their sole responsibility. Soon, having grown through encounters and passed tests, they create a new life for themselves ... The film, shot in spectacular landscapes with thousands of animals, is a tribute to one of mankind's oldest professions.
