About Derek vs Derek

What do you do when your neighbour goes completely wild?

Award-winning director James Dawson’s new documentary is set in the rolling hills of Devon, telling the story of two neighbouring farmers who share the same name but take radically different approaches to land use.

In equal parts hilarious and moving, the film shines a light on the vital debate surrounding the future of rural Britain, encouraging conversation around how farming and nature restoration might work together.

“Engagingly eccentric crowd-pleaser” – Screen Daily

“Hilarious while at the same time being empathetic and incredibly powerful” – Isabella Tree
