The Morsan Cellar

Belle and Sebastian – Season 3

While chasing a dog that has stolen his shoe, Sebastian discovers a secret room in the manor's cellar, a bedroom that has been set up inside. Jonathan, the servant, then reveals the family's past as members of the Maréchal resistance. Jonathan takes Sebastian fishing in Morsan Bay and shows him the "Mary-Morgane." During the Second World War, this boat allowed resistance fighters to reach England. Joseph Théphanie, the boat's captain, was suspected of having denounced the Maréchal family to the militia, which led to the arrest and disappearance of Claire and Gilles.
