In 2011, following the birth of his son, David Rosenstein quit his job and began a new life as an urban farmer. David’s vision is an agricultural revolution: high yields of fresh organic produce grown and sold within walking distance of any neighborhood. He began with a working prototype, a soilless aquaponics farm in his own community. The Farm documents David’s labors to bring his crops from seedling to harvest and ultimately onto the plates of his neighbors. This is a film about David’s journey as a farmer, a father, and a global citizen with a very different view of what is possible. It is also a highly stylized meditation on the rhythms of work, the power of ideals, and the beauty of life and growth.
