Logline

A world premiere: A drama spoken in dialect about a young farmer making her way in a family tradition.

Milk has been an unprofitable commodity for a while now. Farming in general is suffering, and more and more farms are having to close. But Katinka is holding on to the family business, is being trained in farming, and is seeking her future in a place that remembers how things once were.
