“Our Seeds” was shown at the film festival “Globale Mittelhessen” held in Giessen from 18th-27th November. Organiser, Monika Scarf reports:
“The reactions are all positive of course. In your film we especially liked the community between the people and their respect for nature. It leaves a feeling of harmony. And the awareness that we can change something, we just have to get started.
We combined “Our Seeds” with a film about alternative ways of living together in communities and small villages (“Ein neues Wir”), so I think the people left quite assured and with a confident feeling this evening.”
