Etre et Avoir. Etre et Avoir tells the story of six months in the life of a small primary school in the Auvergne‚ a predominantly rural part of France. It is a documentary film‚ primarily operating through a fly-on-the-wall mode‚ that is to say without any discernable interference from the film maker. The camera appears quite simply to sit alongside the children and observe them as they go about their daily business in the classroom. What I want to do in the lecture today is discuss the ways in
