synopsis:
(Also known as: "At Sachem Farm", "Higher Love", and "Tradewinds")

A film about finding a way to live. The story centers around a constant failure, Ross; his girlfriend, Kendal, who seems less than passionate about him; Kendal's friend Laurie, about whom little is know; his brother Paul, who spends all his time creating a garden of trees; and his uncle Cullen, who is the driving force for change.

Although not by definition solely a romance, there is a certain warmness and caring between the characters which gives the viewer a sense of well being like a warm summers day spent tossing stones at the riverside. It's a film about connecting with those around you and, more importantly, with yourself.
