Max is forced to move to the country with his dad after his dad’s business goes belly up. Staying at a farm he realizes that if he uses all the free range chickens he can set up an egg business. However as he makes a go of it , the processes set up to protect the big companies from competition begin to cause him trouble.
I was not planning on seeing COCO Farm at NYICFF however talking to people who had seen it at the film’s two festival screenings had me asking to see it. I mean people were saying they felt so good that they got weepy.
While I did not get weepy, I enjoyed the heck out of the film. A wonderful film about great people I instantly fell in love with everyone on screen. I know people tend to favor the animated films at NYICFF, however every year the festival is full of great live action films like this. This is the sort of film that is going to find it’s audience and become a touchstone film for generations.
This, like most films at NYICFF is one you will want to track down- and I mean that for adults as well as kids.
