Most Americans have never stepped foot on a farm or ranch or even talked to the people who grow and raise the food we eat. "Farmland" takes an intimate look at the lives of farmers and ranchers in their twenties, all of whom are now responsible for running their farming business. Learn about their high- risk/high reward jobs and passion for a way of life that has been passed down from generation to generation, yet continues to evolve.

Console best movie i've ever seen.
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
danj-reed Farmland is a fair representation of a career in farming. There is no hype and no exaggeration. There is no spin. The only way to get a better idea of what US farms are actually like is to quit your day job and become a farmer like one brave woman profiled in this documentary actually did. The scenes are beautiful and they show the diversity in agriculture. The film covers animal and plant agriculture and profiles farms in many different locations in the US. Watch the film and then contact your local university's cooperative extension service to get in touch with farmers in your area. Go visit farms where you live (City dwellers this may be a field trip, but it is one worth making if you can).
jeffmason131 I very much enjoyed (and learned from) viewing the documentary. It was very eye opening to see the state of our farming industry. The process of getting food from the farm to the table is not something I previously gave much thought. I'm glad I got a chance to screen this film (before its full national release). It was interesting to see the lives of the people and families (some of which have been involved in farming for generations) behind the industry.It was also refreshing to not only see a documentary done on such important subject matter, but one done at such a high-level of production quality. Highly Recommended.
