ERES is a poetic and tangible documentary film that follows four children as they experience the natural cycle of life on a farm. Each child lives on a remote farm in the southwest of The Netherlands and is learning the profession of their ancestors from a young age. They dream that one day they will take over the farm of their father. Although this dream is never doubted, as they reach the early years of puberty the outside world begins to intrude on their universe. As the seasons go by, crops are sown and harvested, and animals are born and slaughtered. The children are confronted with the volatility of nature, the threat of extreme weather conditions and the cycle of life and death. CERES is not only a narrative about life on a farm, it is also a story about dreams and isolation, and most importantly, about growing up. An intimate portrait of four children, the documentary explores the world through their eyes and examines their relationship to nature and human society. This is a universal story that will reach a place in the heart of everyone.
