The Biggest Little Farm

Directed by: John Chester

Join us on an eight-year journey with filmmaker and farmer John Chester and his wife, culinary writer Mary, as they trade in city life for 200-acres of barren farmland outside Los Angeles and the dream to harvest in harmony with nature in The Biggest Little Farm. Through dogged perseverance and embracing the opportunity provided by nature’s conflicts, the Chester’s unlock and uncover a biodiverse design for living that exists far beyond their farm, its seasons, and our wildest imagination. Featuring breathtaking cinematography, adorable animals and an urgent message to heed Mother Nature’s call, The Biggest Little Farm gives a blueprint for healthier living in harmony with the planet. “It may…revive your wonder at the weird but ultimately awe-inspiring ways in which humans can help nature do its work.” (New York Times).

Sauna is a brand new Toronto based band featuring Zach Bines (Weaves), Braeden Craig (Greys), and Michael le Riche (Fake Palms). With le Riche’s synths in bright focus, this project marks a departure from the electric guitar-driven sound of Fake Palms. Bines (bass) and Craig (drums), meanwhile, provide a tough and tight complement to this new approach. Minimalist one minute and maximalist the next, the music is rich with suspense and satisfying subversions of expectation.
