The Farmer and the Hipster

Florian, a Viennese journalist and lawyer, accepts a challenge from Christian, a farmer, to try living on his Alpine farm. He leaves the safety of his social bubble and ventures into an entirely unknown world. But what at first seems to be an interesting adventure turns out to be a challenging life full of hard work and obstacles, in which the future of the farm is decided by weather fluctuations and decisions made in faraway Brussels. This humorous film documents the emergence of an unexpected friendship between two very different men. But it also follows a way of sustainable farming that was the norm until not long ago, while today it struggles for survival in competition with industrial animal farms and agricultural production.
