NOTES
Title from title frames
In WOOLLY, director Rebekka Nystabakk follows her sister Rakel as she becomes the 4th generation to run the family farm. Together with her wife Ida, Rakel is enthusiastic, but aware that they have a lot to learn. Rakel’s father, a farmer for 40 years, knows what lies ahead: years when spring never arrives, summers of significant losses to predators, poor harvests, and sheep on the run. Every day is full of surprises, both frustrating and awe-inspiring, as they navigate their way in this new life.Many would probably claim that this way of farming belongs to a bygone time. Parts of the hayfield are too steep for tractors. Consequently, these parts of the field are still mowed with a scythe. But when we ask our main character, Rakel, if she could really see this kind of farming as a part of the future, she said: “This is the future. Because I know how to make food by using the resources I have around me. That will never be old fashion."
