Explore the rise and fall of the North Dakota oil boom through the intimate lens of one family forced to fight for a disappearing way of life. Through its lyrical core, the film challenges the notion of "progress" as it questions the long term human consequences of short term approaches to land use.

This beautiful, meditative year-in-the-life portrait of a remote weed grower captures the pastoral spirit of a passing era between the time when marijuana cultivation was an underground, artisanal vocation, and what looms ahead with the legalization of recreational pot. Something will be lost when slow weed gets pushed out by big cannibusiness, and Kristy Guevara-Flanagan lets us sit with this for a spell.- –Jon Christensen, UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability
