Off the Beaten Track plot

A year in the life of Albin and his herding family in northern Transylvania. This documentary follows their daily routines and their struggle to adapt to a contemporary world, where traditions are gradually replaced by modern values. Since joining the EU, Romania, like a number of other Eastern European countries, has been confronted with the pressure of modernization, the introduction of competition into the farmer's life, the temptation of immigration for higher foreign salaries and the marginalization of locally produced food versus industrial products.
