Femke, her mother Trijn and her grandfather have very different
ideas about how to run their family farm. Tensions between mother
and daughter are growing; Femke wants to switch to sustainable
growing principles, whilst her mother considers this an attack on
tradition. To make matters worse, their home province of Groningen
is experiencing a series of earthquakes caused by drilling for gas
at a site close to their farm. While the cracks and splinters in
their farmhouse increase, the authorities and the state-owned gas
company refuse to offer the local farming community any help. In
Shocked Earth, Saskia Goldschmidt investigates what it means to
have your identity intensely entwined with your place of birth and
your principles at odds with your closest kin. And how to keep
standing when the world as you know it is slowly falling apart.
