An intimate portrait of two brothers who spent their whole lives working the slate quarries of the Monts d'Arrée in Brittany, "two angels fallen from the sky", as Alain Kerrien calls them, for the nobility, discretion and elegance they carry. The photographer's gaze is no nostalgic vision but shows their closed, everyday world and work gestures now lost.
