This film couldve been based on many real life stories upon the vast continent of america. its a farma-drama story, about an orchard farm in the northwestern part of the great state of california, and its as usual the fight for survival, at the mercy of the banks, the threats of conglomeration, and the pressure from property developers who wish to build houses in some of the finest rural areas in the world.. its a young girl against everyone, stubborn and bound to a promise she gave to her grandfather, that she will stand tall and make this orchardry survive for generations. the production and acting are merely flawless, dramaslow it is, but it surtainly tucks you into the sad emotions that reign this territory. its a film made on a bargain sale give or take a few dollars out of nothing , then youll know its good old craftmanship filmaking. the sad story isnt for everybody to like, but it should and will find it crowds i'm sure. and that is said in the name of the grumpy old man, a recommend
