- Woolly. by Nystabakk, Rebekka,film director.; Magnet Film (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by Magnet Film in 2024.In WOOLLY, director Rebekka Nystabakk follows her sister Rakel as she becomes the 4th generation to run the family farm. Together with her wife Ida, Rakel is enthusiastic, but aware that they have a lot to learn. Rakel’s father, a farmer for 40 years, knows what lies ahead: years when spring never arrives, summers of significant losses to predators, poor harvests, and sheep on the run. Every day is full of surprises, both frustrating and awe-inspiring, as they navigate their way in this new life.Many would probably claim that this way of farming belongs to a bygone time. Parts of the hayfield are too steep for tractors. Consequently, these parts of the field are still mowed with a scythe. But when we ask our main character, Rakel, if she could really see this kind of farming as a part of the future, she said: “This is the future. Because I know how to make food by using the resources I have around me. That will never be old fashion."Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Clément Faveau, Luna Garret, Mathis Bernard, Maïwene BarthelemyOriginally produced by Kino Lorber in 2024.After the tragic death of his father, 18 year old Totone is thrust into the unexpected and very adult role of looking after his younger sister and their failing family farm in the Jura section of France. He assumes even more responsibility when he enters a cash competition for the best Comte cheese made in this western part of the French Alps. A “verité” look at the hardscrabble life of French agriculture, HOLY COW is simultaneously a coming of age story and, above all, an ode to the love of cheese.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Ameni Fdhili, Feten Fdhili, Fide Fdhili, Hneya Ben Elhedi Sbahi, Leila Ouhebi, Samar SifiOriginally produced by Film Movement in 2021.On a hot summer day, a crew of workers - men and women, young and old - arrive at dawn at a picturesque fig orchard in northwest Tunisia. We eavesdrop, through the sun-dappled leaves of the fig trees, on the young women stealing away precious moments from the foreman's watchful gaze. Meanwhile, the older women, tasked with the careful job of packing the tender fruit, watch and reminisce together as well. They joke, argue, debate, gossip, flirt, all the while painting an unhurried but riveting portrait of everyday life in the rural society, where class, gender, and circumstance often don't allow for such personal freedoms. Set over the course of a single day, and with a cast made up of an intergenerational ensemble of non-professional actors, UNDER THE FIG TREES is "an elegant, understated tapestry of complex interactions [and] a pleasurable and immersive experience" (The Hollywood Reporter) that ultimately reveals the ways in which sisterhood itself becomes an act of resistance.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
