Irish family, farmer, Sean O Cualain, Sonta, freitag.de

This documentary tracks a year in the life of an Irish family and captures a defining moment - the decision to end fulltime farming on the family holding. Fáiscthe as an Talamh brings us right into the lives of Séamus and Máirín de Búrca and unobtrusively conveys a big story by its chronicling of small and mundane moments in one family’s life. A combination of circumstances has resulted in the ending of agriculture as the main source of income for thousands of Irish families. Behind the bare statistics about the current demise of small farming in Ireland lie thousands of individual stories. This is one of them.
