Prairie Public
This 60-minute documentary tells the compelling stories of the women who settled the North Dakota prairie, and of the new generations, ages 15 to 92, who continue to work on the farm. These women embody the German-Russian expression “Arbeit macht das leben suess” … “Work makes life sweet.” The project was inspired by the book of the same name written and edited by Sue Balcom.
