An ode to life and nature.

In 1873, painter Gustave Courbet, fled Paris over charges of his participation in the Commune. He set up shop at La Tour-de-Peilz in Switzerland and kept painting, living, loving, swimming, drinking, and making merry. He died in 1877. The Limpid Fountain is the story of his final years by Lake Leman. Refusing to depict Courbet as an artiste maudit, David Bosc portrays him as a free man, so free it killed him.
