Description of this Manon des Sources Movie Poster
Manon des sources is the second part of the French novel Les eaux des collines, adapted from Marcel Pagnol and released in 1986. The first part is titled Jean de Florette.
Manon has grown into a beautiful young adult and lives as a shepherdess in the hills. Ugolin and Papet are successful with their carnation cultivation. In the village lives the new schoolteacher Bernard, who roams the Provençal hills and whom Manon observes. The young girl falls in love with the handsome young man. Ugolin regularly goes hunting and in turn observes Manon. He falls in love with the young girl, which at the same time causes him remorse. Manon accidentally finds the spring that supplies the village with water. By chance, she had eavesdropped on two villagers and learned that everyone in the village knew about the spring on her father’s land and was therefore complicit in his death. After discovering the spring, she decides to block it in the same way that Papet and Ugolin had done with the spring on her father’s land. Suddenly, the village finds itself without water. Ugolin panics not only because of his lovelorn madness, but now his carnations are in danger of being destroyed. During Sunday mass, the villagers hear in the priest’s sermon that there is a crime in the village circle. Almost everyone knows that it concerns Ugolin and Papet. A procession must remedy this, and Manon, as an orphan, must participate. At first, she refuses. But when she accuses Ugolin and Papet in front of the assembled village of being responsible for her father’s death, Bernard is also involved in the story. With Bernard, she frees the source from the blockage, and during the procession, the village fountain is filled with water again. Ugolin commits suicide, knowing now that Manon will never marry him.
Manon and Bernard marry, while Papet pays his respects at Ugolin’s grave. A blind old woman tells Papet about a letter that Florette, his lifelong love, had written to him while he was serving in the military in Africa. He had never received this letter. He then learns that Florette was pregnant and that Jean de Florette was her son. Manon is therefore his granddaughter. Old Papet then loses all will to live. In his will, he leaves his entire fortune to Manon and confesses his whole story to her. After doing this, he dresses finely and lies down in his bed, where he is found dead the next morning by his housekeeper.
