The gardener of Versailles

Synopsis

The gardens of Versailles have always been associated with power, rigour, pomp and ceremony and a certain classicism. These gardens designed by Le Notre in the 17th century for king Louis XIV are now famous all around the world.Unlike all the previous films made about the gardens and which only underline the beauty of their 18,500 trees, 350,000 bushes, square kilometres of grass and its so special green shine spreading over 815 hectares, this documentary will give an inside view of the gardens as it will follow the everyday life of the people who work there.
