The village of Chamborigaud (Gard) was cut off from the world on March 18. One of the bridges giving access to the town collapsed when a truck passed, miraculously leaving its driver alive.
It is no longer possible to go through there to reach the next village, Génolhac, as well as the rest of the Cévennes. “It feels like the beginning of January, with only the locals,” says the grocer.
