At a time when ecological crises are forcing us to rethink our place in the world, how can we reconnect with the nature we have gradually learned to observe from afar?
In his late teens, Geoffroy Delorme leaves behind the conventional structures of society to live alone in a forest in Normandy. For seven years, without a tent, shelter, or equipment, he lives according to the rhythms of the seasons and wild animals. Gradually, he earns the trust of the roe deer, observes their behavior, shares their territory, and develops an intimate understanding of their way of life. This extraordinary experience inspired The Roe Deer Man, a memoir that became a publishing sensation. Far more than a personal adventure, his account challenges us to reconsider how we inhabit the Earth and relate to other living beings. What can we learn from animals? How can we become attuned once again to the world around us? What does it mean to live with nature rather than alongside it? Featuring live drawings and musical accompaniment, this event will blend storytelling, observations of the living world, and reflections on the bonds of trust that can form between humans and animals.
