The central character, designated under the symbolic name of “Chasseur Vert” (Green Hunter), embodies youth, ardor, curiosity and the desire for self-assertion, while his journey is marked by trials that gradually lead him to a deeper understanding of men, their passions, their contradictions and the implicit rules that govern society -
