NEW CALEDONIA - A PEBBLE LIKE NO OTHER

Exploring with wide open eyes

An episode from the series LANDS OF THE EARTH

Synopsis

New Caledonia has an impressive variety of landscapes, a nature that some men respect like a goddess, while others preserve and protect it and others still cultivate or exploit.

Within these wild lands lives a multi-ethnic and divided society. Kanaks (first occupants of the island), Caldoches (descendants of Europeans), mixed-race, Polynesians and Asians all stay apart for everything separates them: history, culture, traditions, way of life.

This film sets out to meet these different communities in order to grasp the essence of Caledonian society.
