Living Lightly

24 mins

This sweet film offers a unique glimpse into the world of a 21st-century family that chooses to live close to the land.

In a corner of New Brunswick, Canada, the craft of scything is practiced as meditation in action. Living Lightly poetically explores a way of relating to the land, and the bounty that comes from such devotion. You’ll love the competition between the gas-powered weed whacker and the young woman in a sun dress wielding a scythe!
