A strikingly shot work of documentary as historical corrective, John Hanson and Rob Nilsson’s PRAIRIE TRILOGY chronicles the story of early North Dakota socialists through a portrait of Henry Martinson, a ninety-seven-year-old ex-organizer and poet. In REBEL EARTH, Martinson, accompanied by a younger farmer, revisits the scenes of his life, seeking out the spot of his Divide County homestead.
