00:00Hello, do you need water or bread?
00:04The mayor of Marmont in the southwest of France is bringing supplies to these residents, who've been cut off by
00:11flood water.
00:13People on mountains have snow, us by the river, we have floods.
00:17Around 80 people have been left stranded after the river Gouron burst its banks, as well as some animals.
00:25Each house has almost 10 meters of water surrounding it.
00:28But this elderly woman says she refuses to leave.
00:33I have lived alone for four years. Being surrounded by water is different, but I've seen it all.
00:38The team has around four kilometers of water to cross, as they look for anyone needing their help.
00:44We need bread, please.
00:47The water is rising slowly, which means we can make plans and evacuate people when they wish.
00:53The municipal workers will continue helping the most isolated people.
00:58Local food banks have given them provisions to distribute.
