Year of the Goat Poster

Year of the Goat: Directed by Aaron Hancox, Michael McNamara. They're curious, mischievous, loving, and most of all unique - just like their owners. Year of The Goat follows a group of youthful goat-fanciers on the path to glory - a win at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair's Dairy Goat Competition. To make it to the Royal, the Superbowl of agricultural fairs in November, they must compete in a series of regional shows across Ontario, beginning in June. It won't be easy, as these kids must balance caring for their goats with school and home life. And some of these families live on working dairy goat farms where profits are slim - so the pressure to win is high. Not only is the prestige of a win at the Royal good for their goat breeding or dairy businesses, prize money can help them to break even.
