Goemons - Film Tickets

Goëmons - Film marks Bellon’s debut, a concise yet powerful black-and-white documentary created between 1946 and 1948 on the Breton island of Béniguet. Running roughly 20 minutes, the film follows the hard life and labor of island goémon harvesters and their families, captured without a traditional producer’s oversight. This intimate portrait earned international recognition, including the Grand Prix International du Documentaire at the Venice Film Festival in 1948 (Venice Biennale). The project was produced by Étienne Lallier and distributed by Les Films de l'Équinoxe / Doriane Films, with restoration and redistribution supported by CNC and related film entities. In the late 1990s, archival restoration enabled renewed visibility, and in the 2020s, Ciné-concerts and archival showings have brought Goëmons back to contemporary audiences.
