May seem odd, but I recommend this movie very highly. Just saw it recently.
It is about the emotional and logistical issues of a single young woman who
makes a decision to go into farming. Though it occurs in France, the themes
are germane to Vermont and New England. A wonderful and beautiful film.
Could someone please forward to the Women in Agriculture Group? Bill

Fed up with city life, Sandrine (Mathilde Seigner) decides to leave Paris
and live out her dream of becoming a farmer. It's love at first sight when
she comes across a farmstead on the Vercors plateau, which she takes over
from the cantankerous farming veteran Adrien (Michel Serrault).
Sandrine is
as confident she can run the farm by herself as Adrien is skeptical; the
trials of the oncoming winter will prove them both wrong.
Available onDVD
