Women with Cows

About This Movie

So, 'Women with Cows' is a quiet but impactful documentary that really draws you into the life of Britt, who's 77 and still tending to her cows despite her back issues. It's not flashy, but that's part of its charm. The pacing feels very much like farm life itself—slow and steady, with moments of tension as Britt struggles but persists. Her sister, Inger, is an interesting foil; her reluctance about milking adds a layer of humor and realism. The film's atmosphere is infused with a sense of duty and love for the animals. You feel the weight of their daily routines and the bond they share with these cows. It’s a raw look at resilience in rural life, and the performances, while understated, resonate deeply.
