A child and his father live in the heart of the forest, leading a wild and difficult life in utmost isolation. The child grows up wild, fearing and admiring his father, a tyrannical giant. His only companions are the ghosts haunting the forest.
One day he discovers a neighbouring village and meets a young girl there, Manon. At her side, he discovers that love exists. From then on, he won’t cease to search for the place where his father’s love for him is hiding.
The Day of the Crows is based on a novel with the same title by the Canadian author Jean-François Beauchemin. The book was an instant bestseller and received the France-Quebec Prize.
