PETER and the FARM November 25 December 2 dir. Tony Stone, Documentary, Not Rated, USA, English, 2016, 91 min.
PETER and the FARM November 25 December 2 dir. Tony Stone, Documentary, Not Rated, USA, English, 2016, 91 min. Peter Dunning is the proud proprietor of Mile Hill Farm, which sits on 187 acres in Vermont. The lands 38 harvests have seen the arrivals and departures of three wives and four children, leaving Peter with only animals and memories. The arrival of a film crew causes him to confront his history and his legacy, passing along hard-won agricultural wisdom even as he doubts the meaning of the work he is fated to perform until death. Haunted by alcoholism and regret, Peter veers between elation and despair, often suggesting to the filmmakers his own suicide as a narrative device. He is a tragedian on a stage it has taken him most of his life to build, and which now threatens to collapse from under him.
