1. What strikes me about this movie is the way they live. It really surprised me how they make their own food and milk. It's amazing! When they showed the animals, I said to myself, "Oh God what else do they have, a cow?" The dedication they had planting all those plants for months, it's really cool . I would like to help them but I'm not that hippie. One more thing isthey chose to use a bicycle not a car. In my opinion, what they're doing is really hardcore.

2. Well, Ishmael was talking to Julie about Fertile Crescent; it was an empty area of world to grow a garden not like deserts, now. He started to talk about the leavers people of Terpsichore .
Those people became full time farmers like the Dervaes Family. Well, not all the people. Another group did something else and so did another, they didn't think it was necessary.

3. This family is unique and determined to do a change . I like how they live simple , relaxing , peaceful and pacific. n short ,full time hippies in my opinion. And what really , really was shocking about it was that they didn't work at all. Well they worked in the farm, but outside their little jungle: no money, no technology, elsewhere to be found in their house , maybe a couple of things, but still.
This family has really made an impact in my life; it inspired me to make a difference too, but not that extreme.

  1. I have to agree with you, what the family's doing seems pretty hard. I'm not quite sure I want to live exactly like them. But they did inspire me too.

  2. I agree with you when you said , "Oh God what else do they have, a cow?"
    It seemed like they had all the animals the farms had.
