Seeds: Tuesday, July 21

Admission $5
Showing at 7:30pm

Documentary,  2 hours, 2 min., B&W
Directed and produced by Brittany Shyne

Interweaving the stories of three Black generational farmers to create a collective and intimate portrait of farming today, Seeds is a moving and powerful exploration of their lives, joys and struggles as well as the fragility of legacy and owning land. Through these inter-generational stories, we see the cycles of inequity and embedded racism that persist to this present day, and the signs of hope and renewal with younger generations of farmers.

“There is no part of Seeds that doesn’t feel like a priceless heirloom, like a window into a critical cultural history that must be maintained or lest be permanently lost.” — RogerEbert.com

“A languid, loving portrait of Black farmers in the South, Seeds is a mixture of celebration and lament. With the patience of a sower, Shyne lets the lives of her subjects unfold gently over two hours.” — Variety
