2025 Saturday Film Club - AFTER WINTER, SPRING
About
In an era of rapid growth of mega-farms, the encroachment of suburbia and new European Union rules and reductions of agricultural subsidies, the farmers in the Périgord region of southwest France are forced to confront challenges that threaten the very existence of their small farms.This film was recorded by a Pennsylvania filmmaker who grew up on her family's farm. Interweaving her story and the French farmers', the documentary explores the nature of farming life and the rapid changes of the last two decades that have impacted the lives of families whose survival is tied to the land. Facing an uncertain future, the farmers not only struggle to hold on to their farms, but also their values and intimate relationship with nature.
Join us in the evening to watch the film over dinner, and let us look into the world of traditional farming of the Périgordine farmers.
