A logger and his horse take us deep into a forest in the Ardennes as the seasons go by, living his passion under the gaze of a strange young girl. The man will teach her his passion of draft horse logging: this is a film about the idea of passing down, and how some encounters can lead to a life’s calling. The short film “Traces” shows today’s youth as the main force of the preservation of our forests while highlighting the emotional symbiosis between man, animal and the forest.
About the Director
Have no doubts about Sebastien Pins’s commitment to nature; he has proven it. Fascinated by the beauty, the fragility and the mysteries of nature, Sebastien Pins became interested in photography very early. Today, because of his attachment to the natural patrimony of the Ardennes and of his inhabitants, he tries, through his films, to reconcile Man with Nature by inviting the spectator to act positively in favour of the preservation of tomorrow’s world..
