Synopsis

Pierre, a thirty-five-year-old dairy farmer, took over the old farm of his parents and is dedicated twenty-four hours a day to his cows. However, when an epidemic breaks out that threatens his flock, the protagonist becomes terribly nervous; even Pascale's assurances and his veterinary sister try to calm him by confirming that everything is fine, but he can not get that idea out of his head. And, unfortunately, their fears come true as one of their animals ends up infected. The impact of the news is really severe, since the infection in one of their cows means that their entire herd should be sacrificed, although Pierre is not going to let that happen.
