HARVEST

Followed by a discussion with co-directors Natalie Baszile and Hyacinth Parker

Sondheimer, Louisiana. Population 200. Tucked in the northeast corner of the state, this rural enclave is home to the four Nelson Brothers—young, ambitious, fourth-generation commodity farmers who dream of becoming the biggest farmers in the United States. Farming is in their blood, dating all the way back to their great-grandfather. But the Nelson brothers refuse to be hindered by the economic and institutional barriers that kept their forefathers from succeeding. The brothers are uncompromising as they strategize and work together, determined to forge ahead against all odds.
