SYNOPSIS

Lake Annecy and Lake Bourget offer picture-perfect landscapes and an idyllic lifestyle that attract ever-growing numbers of visitors. But how can these natural paradises be enjoyed without destroying what makes them so special? Fishermen, chefs, freediving and paragliding instructors, and local residents are all trying, in their own way, to benefit from the tourist boom while preserving their way of life. From new outdoor activities and gastronomy to local traditions, the film explores the fragile balance between tourism and the preservation of these Alpine lakes.
