What People Are Saying:
“Shepherds adapts Lefebure’s memoir D’où viens-tu, berger? and might thrill audiences with its notion of connecting with a traditional way of life, while leaving them equally daunted by the realities of it. This is a touching, soul-stirring film that rejuvenates a viewer like a crisp flick of fresh air.”
