Au nom de la terre

Not only a story about farmers conditions but also about passionated people facing burn out...

I hated this film. I really don't understand why anybody would choose to watch such a dismal story. I saw it in a sneak- preview and would have left the cinema if I could have without disturbing others. Veerle Baetens was wonderful.

I saw this at a one off showing at the Glasgow Film Festival. Beautifully made and played by a great cast, it was so quietly powerful. A good role model on social comment in movies as there was no self righteous lecturing from the director and it was all the more effective for that. Please do see. Oh, and the music was great and appropriately used.

Is a movie that touches my heart, so real and inspiring.when i saw it I could place my life there , ant think how hard is to reach our dreams and how fast they can finish , the farmers life is so hard but is so great to live it , God leave everything under control and He wants us to enjoy all He have created , life go so fast and we have to live it the best !! Doing the best for others !! Our family is a great gift and we have to love them and fight for them ! I want to see the movie again but I can't find it !! I don't understand how a beautiful movie is so hard to find!! Good actors good director !!!

No pun intended - farmers and burn out - those were the days. Sorry not the days where that happened. But when you could write a few words and be done with your review. I still like to write a bit more than necessary, but on some movies, less is more. This movie right here is important to give us an insight into inheritance, inot life and legacy ... into mental illness too. Not mine of course (yes I watch a lot ... of movies, which makes me able to rate and review a lot too) ... but that of the main character.

Farmers do have a lot to do - a lot to stomach. With their family being torn and maybe even wanting to leave for the city. There is a reason many have issues. Too many to really solve all of them or even touch upon them in one movie (or review) .. but the movie does try to make it as accessible as possible. Kudos for that ...
