At a centuries-old Dutch estate, an 85-year-old pruning master and the estate's gardener work on cultivating crops.

Amy Brady

Village Voice

Meditative in its slowness and exquisite beauty, Portrait of a Garden is more than a fine documentary - it's a balm for the soul.

New York Times

As you watch its diligent overseers at work, the movie feels like a Zen meditation on time, nature and human activity.

Carson Lund

Slant Magazine

Portrait of a Garden's distance from its human subjects forestalls the film's momentum and strips it of a heart.

Rated: 2/4

Laramie Movie Scope

This isn't just a collection of great pictures of a classic garden and orchard (AKA a castle farm) it is also a manifesto about food and the art of gardening.

Rated: C+

Eye for Film

Rosie Stapel's graceful documentary lets us see something of the processes involved, and lets us appreciate the way the garden changes over the shorter timeframe of four seasons.

Rated: 4.5/5
