A FLYER DEPICTING A MAN HOLDING A BABY
November 12, 2026. Ahmadieh Family Lecture. Smith Warehouse, Bay 4. 6:00 pm SCREENING. SEEDS. (2025) 123". Britanny Shyne. Interweaving the stories of three Black generational farmers to create a collective and intimate portrait of farming today, Seeds is a moving and powerful exploration of their lives, joys, and struggles as well as the fragility of legacy and owning land. With remarkable intimacy, the film documents their everyday lives - cotton harvesting, chasing cows, dealing with broken machinery and financial precarities.
