Director's Statement
I met Niels one year ago because I was visiting his farm with my children and I immediately fell in love with the warm and sensitive way that Niels and his wife Rita run the farm. The live in a devoted pact with everything in our universe from the smallest microorganisms to the plants that surround us. I also felt that Niels was a great character because behind his cosy Santa-Claus-look there is a stubbern anarchist. Niels wants to respect and preserve the cattle’s natural instincts which for instance means that they are drinking from big bathtubs instead of running water in cups. This is prohibited in modern organic farming.
This is a film about rediscovering the joy that most people experience in their childhood when you´re just being present in nature. I want to give the audience the same profound feeling of being alive that I experienced when I first came to the farm. I wanted to make a film that reminds us to live our everyday lives with devoutness so that one day we won’t wake up realising that we never lived.
