synopsis
Gail Rose never imagined she'd be wrangling deer in her sixties in the Shenandoah Valley but after her deer farmer husband dies, she's left with her promise to keep the farm going no matter what. No one could predict how things would end up for Gail, the deer, or the farm in this quirky, uplifting tale of the life of a farmer.
