Meet Molly and John Chester. In 2010, they decide to leave their lives in Los Angeles behind and purchase an abandoned, 200-acre farm in Moorpark, California. Rechristening it "Apricot Lane Farms", the couple chronicle the next seven years transforming the arid landscape into a sustainable farm with a bio-diverse habitat for flora and fauna. This brilliant documentary follows the highs and lows of their new life and the complex relationship between humans and nature. The viewer is swept along by the couple’s infectious idealism, their enthusiasm for the project, and dedication to each other. With a strong but never preachy eco-overtone, The Biggest Little Farm may just make you take stock of your own life.
