CE QUE CACHE LA FORÊT (What the Forest conceals) explores the invisible inheritance we carry within us: that of the family unconscious passed down from generation to generation.

How can they be recognized, overcome and healed? Filmmaker Louis Mouchet shares his own journey through this deeply personal film. This process was nourished by : The making of and follow-up to the film La Constellation Jodorowsky, An introspective dive triggered by the death of his mother and the simultaneous birth of his first child, A powerful session with Romanian therapist Cristina Schmidt.
