Joseph is the last shepherd on the island still grazing his goats on clifftop pastures overlooking the sea. But his land—passed down through generations—is coveted by the mafia and the forces of unchecked greed.
When a group of menacing strangers arrives at his door to pressure him one final time, the standoff turns violent. A gunshot shatters the calm, and Joseph flees into the wild. What follows is a relentless manhunt across Corsica’s rugged scrubland and dense forests, captured by Frédéric Farrucci with the tension and grandeur of a western.
As bandits swagger openly on café terraces and locals keep to the shadows, Joseph’s flight becomes a stark portrait of resistance—an epic struggle of one man against the forces closing in. The last of the Mohicans.
