Seeds is not a journalistic investigation but a poetic contemplation.

It’s an incredibly rewarding journey, a film indebted to the past that feels brilliantly alive.

Seeds may be indebted to the elder subjects that Shyne centralizes, but it’s also a film that dares to look forward, suggesting that — despite everything — these farms will continue.

Seeds is a sweet, meditative elegy for a way of life that is fast disappearing.

Although there are urgent economic and political challenges facing these families, this isn’t muckraking cinema. Instead, the filmmaker hews to the quotidian, the weekly, the annual. Shot in black and white, this portrait of a people is affecting and achy.

Seeds is a film that lives and breathes as we absorb the wisdom of these elders.

On the one hand, Seeds provides a unique glimpse into one family’s joys and struggles, while on the other it delves delicately yet effectively into larger questions of policy, politics, the scars of the past, and the challenges of the present.
