They haven’t set foot in a supermarket in 15 years. They grow 80% of their own food at home and truly embody regenerative living. Talk about living off the land! 👏 And now, Melbourne gets to see it first! 🎉
The film is premiering at the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival on Sunday, 27 July 2025 at Cinema Nova in Carlton. Mark your calendars 📅 and join us for this special screening. There’ll even be a Q&A with the filmmakers after the film.
An intimate portrait of a family’s 20-year transition to a sustainable, simple life, The New Peasants celebrates their rejection of industrial culture for a beautiful, eco-conscious existence.
