Peter Gerdehag

About a man's fierce battle with the authorities to keep his horses.

A engaging and exotic man–nature documentary that is sure to capture audiences in many countries. Beautifully filmed by Peter Gerdehag and sensitively edited by Tell Johansson. He lives for horses, he lives with horses, he works with horses and he just about dies when he is forced to leave his horses because of a storm that turns his life upside down.

Britt is 77 years old and lives for her beloved cows. Despite being bent over double after a back injury, she perseveres with milking by hand and delivers to Arla. She is assisted by her sister Inger, who thinks "milking is the worst thing I've ever done" but still comes to the farm every day to help out.

Peter Gärdehag has documented the work on a small farm in Småland for decades which he has now compiled into a thoughtful meditative documentary about the type of knowledge that has been passed from generation to generation.
