Will It Snow for Christmas? (original title: Y aura-t-il de la neige à Noël ?) is a 1996 French drama film directed by Sandrine Veysset and produced by Humbert Balsan.[3][4]
Plot
In a modest market garden in the South of France, a woman raises her seven children alone. They all work hard alongside hired labour and are exploited by the farm owner, who is her lover and the father of the children, an unfeeling and demanding man who lives on a nearby estate with his legally married wife. Through her unconditional love, the mother strives to preserve the world of her children. She would rather bring them up in the country than in the town, without resources.
