This film reveals through its sensitive filming a small and medium scale agriculture which is both modern and original. The simple testimonies from the documentary question the tension between working with what is living and dealing with the Common Agricultural Policy which influences small-scale agriculture across Europe today.
This film documents an encounter between French and Romanian small-scale farmers. They exchange ideas and experiences through their respective daily work: milking, cheese-making, hay-making, harvesting, looking after the ewes. They discover or recognise daily gestures, differences and commonalities in their work. They share in common the effects of the CAP (Common Agricultural Policy).
These small-scale farmers act within the freedoms and constraints of their work, each seeking independance in work and thought, within the realm of what is possible.
