The Garden, a drama documentary, visualizes a cultural trend toward the resistive re-articulation of mythic assumptions about the morality of farming within a nation of predominantly urban citizens. The tale unfolds as the virtuous main character (the South Central Farmers) struggles against villains threatening the mythology of agrarianism. By invoking the myth of a new agrarianism, the film is able to expose the ethnic, raced, classed, and gendered basis of land-use rhetoric, and how it perpetuates unequal access to dominant myths as empowerment resources
