“Do you want to save the world, or go down?” Magnolia Pictures has released a trailer for a documentary titled Peter and the Farm, about an aging Vermont farmer named Peter Dunning. Filmmaker Tony Stone decided to profile Peter because he has quite a legacy – he’s been working on his 187 acre farm for 40 years, has had 3 wives, has 4 children, and yet now works alone on his farm with all of his animals. As much as it may seem a doc about a farmer is boring, this is anything but – it’s a deeply introspective examination of a person who has lived quite an incredible life. The description says “Peter veers between elation and despair, often suggesting to the filmmakers his own suicide”, which is quite sad but also a brutally honest look at the balance of life. This looks exceptional, actually, with fantastic cinematography to top it off. Worth watching. ›››
