The sparing use of background music helps create a low-key mood in this documentary. Instead, the sounds are those of nature, or perhaps more surprisingly, the clicking of an electric fence.
The daily trials and tribulations of this young shepherd include running across the Alpine slopes to catch a sheep needing treatment, problems with lambing and, perhaps alarmingly, keeping the wolves at bay.
There are moments when the worries and thoughts are etched on his face. Sporadic conversations with his father centre on the present and the future, and how the consequences of climate might change the role of the shepherd for ever.
