Auch 8 Juillet 1977
In Auch, on July 8, 1977, cars are immobilized, groups of amazed people check the situation for themselves, some vehicles try to manoeuver but the water has already begun to penetrate inexorably into the ground floor of the houses and shops. The level reached is very high, the city is paralyzed and people move around by boat. Filmed from above, the astonishing overall views allow us to measure the scale of the phenomenon. The first floors of the buildings are flooded and the Gers river, whose bridges are literally submerged, carries all sorts of objects and waste.
