LE MOIS DU DOC 2026 : AUPRÈS DE MA BOUSE

As part of Documentary Month 2026, the Lozère Departmental Media Library is screening a documentary film: “Auprès de ma bourse” by Manon and Patrick Luneau (2023, 52 mins).

Two little girls wander off from a picnic. They stop in front of a little oasis of life: cowpat. Insects are swarming all over it. They wonder about the holes in some of the cowpats. Their investigation leads them to discover the dung beetle. From egg to adult, we follow its transformations. From the dung sculptor to games played with dung, we discover the fascination that dung holds for people. But many farmers give their herds a worming treatment which ends up intact in the dung, killing the insects. Others are developing alternative methods. Three farmers share their experiences.
