Audience Member Excellent documentary series from PBS that focuses on one family in Nebraska. A very young couple with 3 small daughters struggling together to keep their farm (and marriage) going. There is no narration to the film - just cameras on and capturing their lifes and allowing it to flow the way it happened. It's filmed beautifully. Though this is a two disc (4 hrs) documentary - I must say I really had my eyes opened and learned much about the plight of the American farmer. This becomes much more than that though, it's just a good at educating on how to keep a marriage going. I really liked both of these young parents (the Buschkoetters) and I think everyone that watches this will be pulling for them - not only for their farm but for them by the end of this film.
