Plot synopsis
In the village of Artyushkino in the Ulyanovsk region, visionary farmer Rinaldo Malianov borrows technologies from nature to manage his crops without tractors, without credit, and with almost no help from anyone. His concept of agriculture differs radically from the principles of vegetable growing and animal husbandry. Plots of land that were once uncultivable are now teeming with earthworms, and cows are experiencing motherhood for the first time. Our film focuses on what animals eat and how they cope with the heat and cold while living outdoors, how you can build a business based on permaculture and how it can restore the Arctic.
