“Persistence: Midwest Farmers and Their Uncommon Crops”

Farming can be poetic and gorgeous (at least to filmmakers), but it can also be hard. Our client, The Savanna Institute, wanted a short doc that told the real, relatable stories of Midwestern Farmers going their own way, growing strange fruits, and finding success on their own terms. After lots of great calls and fun meetings over tasty farm-fresh produce, we hit the road, pointing our cameras at everything, and sitting down for incredible conversations with incredible people. That’s how we roll: road trips that result in real stories.
