Two neighbouring Devon farmers. Both called Derek. Very different ideas about what the countryside should look like.
Derek Gow is transforming his farm into an oasis for nature, while Derek Banbury continues to farm more traditionally, with his wife Linda alongside him. As the two approaches collide, wild animals escape, tempers fray and what begins as a neighbourly disagreement develops into a much more personal story.
Funny, warm and surprisingly moving, the film gets beneath the debate around farming and rewilding to explore the people living at the heart of it — and the possibility of finding common ground when opinions seem irreconcilable.
We're screening this as we found it a fresh, well balanced, informative and entertaining insight into some of the very different opinions to be found in farming today. Come see for yourself and decide what you think.
