"…for all practical purposes, we don’t exist"
Choosing where we live can affect how we go about our lives. When
you're Gay, that choice becomes more complex. "FARM FAMILY"
contains seldom heard voices from gay rural America. Stories that are
poignant, funny, frightening and inspiring from men who are almost an
invisible part of gay culture.
Raised on a dairy farm in the Midwest, the film maker reflects back on
his own roots with a look at the lives of gay men living in rural/farm
environments. In this unique work, the film maker has traveled to
Wisconsin, Wyoming, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New Mexico.
The film contains portions from some of the more than 32 interviews that
were conducted by men who have chosen to live outside the more
familiar gay urban centers.
From men raising children, to dairy farmers, to radical faeries, to hermits,
and even a visit to an all gay rodeo, the stories are funny, surprising and
sometime frightening! This is a far cry from the stereotyped urban gay
culture. Includes music performed by gay artist, MARK WEIGLE.
Informative & poignant. (74 minutes)
