La bête des Vosges, autopsie d’une rumeur

About - La bête des Vosges, autopsie d’une rumeur

In the Vosges in 1977, an unidentified beast attacks the herds and massacres them. The media of the time call it: the Beast of the Vosges. Why and how did a banal news item become an incredible modern tale? To understand it, the narrator organizes his own hunt, a sort of hunt with multiple means, his own: cinematic. Very quickly, he faces the rumor. For some, the Beast becomes the pretext to express their desires, their deepest jealousies in broad daylight. Old human hatreds take advantage of it. They rise from their dark depths. They hybridize with the Beast
