After Winter, Spring
PRESENTED BY: Beacon Hill Meaningful MoviesA portrait of one family farm in France and the challenge it faces.
Their story is recorded by one of their neighbors, an American filmmaker who grew up on her familyβs farm in Pennsylvania. Inter-weaving her story and theirs, the film explores the nature of the farming life and the changes, over the last 60 years, that impact the lives of families whose survival is tied to the land. As each of the farmerβs stories unfolds, we see their individual responses to changeβ¦the losses and the surprising adaptations.
The PΓ©rigordine farmers show us that as agriculture moves out of the hands of families who have farmed for generations and into a model of βagriculture as business,β something fundamental shifts. This farming community caught between tradition and an uncertain future struggles to hold on not only to their farms but to a set of values that comes of their intimate relationship with the natural world.Β AFTER WINTER, SPRINGΒ reveals the human story of family farming at a turning point in history.
