Reviews for Derborence: When the Mountain Fell

Our smallness in the face of nature is at the heart of Derborence. Ramuz's words meet their match with Fabian Menon's paintbrush. - Le Temps This story of life and death is beautifully staged - dBD Art and Culture Magazine Menor renders the tenderness that binds people together when faced with the harshness of the mountains and with tragedy - Swiss Public Broadcasting Fabian Menbor's brush exudes a raw power that channels the spirit of the original. - Geneva Tribune
