Les Poêleurs

A three-issue French miniseries from Éditions Bande à Part, Les Poêleurs (2013–2019) follows a group of itinerant stove-fitters whose work takes them into the strange, forgotten corners of rural France. Its deliberate, atmospheric storytelling and muted palette evoke a quiet, melancholic world where craft and isolation intertwine. Though brief, the series is a distinctive example of the publisher's taste for understated, character-driven narratives.
