In this exploration of Chile, more specifically Chile's farming sector, we see the 'story' of 2 farmers, getting property from their dead dad, and how they proceed to take advantage of it. Farmer A does'nt really do anything and let's everything continue on as normal, putting on a 'if it aint broke, don't fix it stance' while farmer B goes into the latest technology and developments to achieve a high tech farm. On top of this, we have an exploration of the other parts of Chile. This really drags on for a while, which made me terribly bored. Although engaging at times (especially talking about old time farming) the rest is just blah.
