My Mother's Castle tells the story of a family's memorable holiday in the French countryside, filled with nostalgia, longing, and the joy of discovering the beauty of Provence. Based on the novel by Marcel Pagnol, it follows the journey of a young boy and his family as they navigate the challenges and joys of life in a small French village. With stunning landscapes, charming characters, and a touch of romance, this film is a delightful exploration of love, family, and the power of memories.

The last episode of Pagnol's memories (see also "La Gloire de Mon Père" "le Château de Ma Mère" and "Le Temps des secrets") deals with the teenage years of Marcel. While always spending his Summers in his dear Garrigue, he is now on the way to the Baccalaureat. He 's got a good pal Lagneau (The Lamb) who of course infuriates the teachers when he "bleats"...

The story takes us from the dear Garrigue to the secondary school where Marcel is first ill at ease because he is a scholarship holder and because he went to the grade school (the other bourgeois pupils had probably a private tutor). A fight against a rich kid ,that augurs badly for what is to follow. (to be followed in "Le Temps des Amours" )
