Summary

Marine Le Pen was defeated in the French election that brought Emmanuel Macron to power, but her far right-wing party, with its nationalist, anti-immigrant platform, lives on to feed the fear and resentment that begot Donald Trump's election. THIS IS OUR LAND is a fictionalized story of an attractive working-class single mother in the North of France who naively agrees to run for mayor, representing the Patriotic Bloc. With the help of the town's esteemed physician, the Populists' rhetoric seizes control of the minds of the electorate, and the blonde-bobbed leader has never met an angry crowd she couldn't make angrier.
