Seven years ago, five friends left Copenhagen for the Baltic island of Bornholm to build an organic cidery from scratch. This documentary follows them during their annual autumn harvest, as they gather apples from neighbors’ and friends' gardens and from their own young orchard to be pressed into cider. Captured on vibrant, dreamlike Super8 film and bathed in the low October light, the film offers an intimate look at their choice to trade city life for manual labor, reestablishing a connection to nature and the tight-knit community cooperation that keeps their dream alive. 2026; 9 min
