Synopsis:
Feeling disconnected from their food, a
photographer/filmmaker and his family decide
to join a community-supported organic farm.
Hoffman moves from passive observer to
active participant as he photographs the
natural processes of food cultivation.
Featuring lush time-lapse and macro
photography sequences compiled from nearly
20,000 still images, this personal essay is
a meditation on the miracles of life.
"The film
made me cry. But I wasn't the only one
wiping my eyes in the darkened theater.
Maybe it was the image of Hoffmann's son
juxtaposed against the beauty and
nourishment of the farm that touched my
heart or watching the cultivation of genuine
relationships over honest work...we all long
for bonds with the Earth, our food and
community." --Melinda Hemelgarn, The
Columbia Tribune
