Story
The film takes place in Gaul of the 5th century, far from the Roman civilization. From the Fore valley, it has been moved to another place because it is impossible to convey the authenticity of what is happening in the landscape that has been modified by modern urbanization. The pastoral characters are depicted as they were imagined by the readers of the seventeenth century.
The shepherd Celadon and the cowgirl Astraea, who are madly in love with each other, are forced to hide because of the long-standing hostility of their families. On the advice of Astraea, Celadon pretends that his heart belongs to another girl. On a rural holiday, Astraea, deceived by a false rival, accuses the innocent Celadon of treason and rushes into the river in despair. The nymphs were almost saved by a young boy. With their help, dressed in a women's dress Celadon, wants to meet with her lover.
