Land of Milk and Honey is a fascinating investigative documentary about post–May ’68 French society. In it, Étaix trains his discerning eye on idle summer vacationers, but the film has bigger fish to fry, asking pertinent questions about the sexualization of culture, class and gender inequality, media and advertising, and even architecture.
The complete works of Pierre Étaix have been restored by Studio 37, Groupama Gan Foundation for Cinema and Technicolor Foundation for Cinema Heritage.
