"An abad per bourdelles, an emsaver" by Jean-Louis Le Tacon, scan from the VideoFest ‘92 program booklet.

A collage-like portrait of Brittany following Father Pierre Bourdelles and his passionate fight for “his” people. Taken from interviews, “electronic landscapes” and worked-over archive footage, an atmospherically dense picture unfolds that describes the feelings of the Bretons and this old man, a fighter with dignity who has influenced the lives of many a young Breton - Le Tacon included. Once his pupil, he now, with this extraordinary work, supports the claims of the Father and, at the same. time, visualizes the “soul” of Brittany.
