The Bapst Brothers, Carriers

The Bapst Brothers, Carriers (1988) is a documentary film directed by Jacqueline Veuve.

The Bapst Brothers: Romain, Maurice and Jacques – whom we will also meet in The Gruyere Chronicle (produced in 1990) – are peasants and carriers and work with their father. In autumn and winter, they bid for the community’s wood, cut down the pine trees and bring down the logs through the snowy woods by horse-drawn sleigh.
