Feature Documentary / 2021 / UK / 75min / Directed by Oscar Harding
When Oscar Harding’s grandfather passed away, Oscar’s family inherited a strange video tape made by farmer Charles Carson.
Intrigued by this strange VHS tape, titled A Life on the Farm, Harding sets out to unravel the mystery of the video described as “Monty Python meets The Texas Chainsaw Massacre”…
A Life on the Farm tells the story of a man with a video camera, an outsider artist with a vision, a farmer, an inventor, and a unique figure.
Laced with interviews from friends, community members, and associates, as well as appearances from Derrick Beckles (TV Carnage) and Joe Pickett and Nick Prueher (The Found Footage Film Festival), A Life on the Farm is a fascinating documentary about one man’s creativity, the wonder of found video recordings, and life on the farm.
