SYNOPSIS

On a small farm in the Norwegian forest, a family seeks a wild free existence. However, after a tragic event changes everything, they are forced from their idyllic farm and into the expectations of modern society. 

NOTE

[Jinna Lee, Programmer​]

After its award-winning at the Sundance Film Festival, this film has been presented at numerous documentary film festivals and gained attention. Is it possible to raise children by homeschooling while being self-sufficient in wild nature?
