Far Out: Life On & After the Commune

FAR OUT TELLS THE STORY OF TWO RURAL NEW ENGLAND COMMUNAL FARMS FOUNDED IN 1968 BY A GROUP OF RADICAL JOURNALISTS FROM NEW YORK CITY.
Far Out: Life On & After the Commune tells the story of two rural New England communal farms. The film traces 50 years in the lives of a group of New England writers, activists and artists. The film begins in the summer of 1968, in the middle of a left-wing faction fight, when a group of radical journalists from Liberation News Service (LNS) leave New York City for the country. The journalists founded two communes in Guilford, Vermont and Montague, Massachusetts, becoming pioneers in the back-to-the-land and organic farming movement. In 1973 when the local utility proposed a giant twin nuclear plant four miles from the Montague Farm, Sam Lovejoy toppled a 500-foot weather tower. Following his acquittal the group became leaders in the burgeoning "No Nukes" movement fighting against the plants across the country from Seabrook to Diablo Canyon. In 1979, they teamed up with Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Graham Nash and other committed rock stars to help produce the sold-out Muse concerts as well as a 250,000-person rally in New York City. With two filmmakers in their midst they also produced some critically acclaimed documentaries, and Far Out contains footage from the very beginning of the communes right up to the present day.
