What do you do when your neighbour goes completely wild?

Award-winning Director James Dawson’s new documentary is set in the rolling hills of Devon, telling the story of two neighbouring farmers who share the same name but take radically different approaches to land use.

In equal parts hilarious and moving, the film shines a light on the vital debate surrounding the future of rural Britain, encouraging conversation around how farming and nature restoration might work together.

The Thu 1 Oct 18:00 preview screening is followed by a Q&A with the film's director James Dawson, impact producer Nicola Brown and Eric Heath, Director of Natural Capital and Ecology at Belmont Estate.

The preview screening is presented in collaboration with Filmmakers For Future: Wildlife.
