7 Walks with Mark Brown [Blu-ray]

7 Walks with Mark Brown Blu-ray presents a quietly immersive documentary journey that blends botany, landscape, and philosophical reflection into a meditative cinematic experience. Accompanied by a small crew, filmmakers Vincent Barré and Pierre Creton follow paleobotanist Mark Brown across seven locations in Normandy as he searches for native plants capable of forming an ancient garden. Along the way, Brown speaks with warmth and precision about the etymology, beauty, and scientific properties of regional flora, transforming each walk into a contemplative study of place, memory, and knowledge passed gently through time.

Released by Several Futures, an independent distributor dedicated to auteur-driven and anti-imperialist cinema, this edition reflects the label’s commitment to politically and artistically resonant work that might otherwise remain unseen in North America. This special limited edition includes a slipcover restricted to 500 units, paired with an extensive set of supplemental films and newly commissioned materials.
