Fun little film that shows how an unnamed town "comes back" from it's doom and pessimism of ignoring everyone and puts a 4H club in, and then suddenly everyone loves each other again. Actually, this film is quite optimistic and it's non-actor characters sucks you in and makes you root for these guys. Love the farmer's twin boys. (you know the ones)
