AroView: One of the world’s most popular non-English language films, this bona fide modern classic of love, greed and revenge is set against the beauty of 1920s French Provence, and is superbly performed by three of France’s biggest stars.

Based on the novel by Marcel Pagnol, the emotionally powerful story of property envy and deceit is satisfying in itself, but especially rewarding when coupled with its sequel, Manon Des Sources.
