    • Synopsis
    • Yves crosses the centuries and returns to the small village of Saint-Jean-du Doigt. During his wanderings, he meets a shaman in touch with the spirits, a painter in search of the light, a storyteller who initiates him into the secrets of traditional Breton songs, and a mystic who tells him about the forgiveness of Saint John. Queen Anne of Brittany and her knight join him in his quest and reveal to him the mysteries of his origin.
