The Biggest Little Farm · dir. John Chester

25 October, 20:00 · Cinema City — room 8
The outstanding film director John Chester and his wife Molly are forced to abandon their tiny apartment in Los Angeles. It is the fault of their beloved dog Todd, as his barking drives other neighbours mad. The Chesters use their banishment as an opportunity to have a dream they have come true: they want to start a farm based on the laws of nature. From now on the 80ha of land in sunny California will be their new home. With the help of their friends and enthusiasts from all around the world, John and Molly bring to life a unique project: 10,000 trees, over 200 different field crops, and tens of animal species, all of them living in harmony with one another and their nature, without any hazardous chemical substances and soulless technology. Documentary.
