Viewers interested in modern cinema often explore Return to the Brouck: The Fenland, 40 Years On because of its cast, story direction, and audience popularity.
Forty years after the production of The Fenland (Le Brouck) comes a follow up about the Audomarois Fenland. Return to the Brouck (Retour au Brouck) (55 min, 2011) Set in the natural environment of northern France, criss-crossed with water ways, market gardening as well as breeding remain the only productive activities. Nevertheless, the number of fenlanders has seriously diminished from 200 farms in the 1970 to 40 in 2010. Other elements are now intervening such as ecology, preand development like the Natural Regional Park and the Romelaere Natural Reserve, or leisure activities like waterfowl hunting, fishing and tourism.
