A Faint Trembling of the Landscape (2009) poster

As the world begins to explore the unknown regions outside our atmosphere, great events are reflected in the everyday actions in a small French community in this experimental comedy-drama from filmmaker Philippe Fernandez. It's the early 1960's, and while Americans and Russians are racing to be the first in outer space, the people who live in a small town can't contain their fascination with the exploration of the cosmos. School children draw pictures of the moon, a repairman thinks he's found evidence of alien life forms, weekend painters develop a new perspective on the sky, kids get into the game by cobbling together a homemade spaceship, and a teacher obsessed with auto racing thinks he knows the secret behind some strange terrestrial events.
