Terre humaine (Human Earth) is a French-Canadian soap opera TV series written by Mia Riddez which originally aired on Radio-Canada from September 18, 1978 to June 4, 1984, totalling 229 episodes.

## Plot

The show takes place in rural Quebec and explores the lives of the Jacquemins, a family of farmers.
