Synopsis
A farmer faced with the financial collapse of his farm and the breakdown of his marriage takes matters into his own hands.
My Shout explores the recent social and economic decline of small wheat-belt communities, due not only to climate change but also to global economic pressures on local farmers to 'get big or get out'.
