Living room

Description

In a grassy field just outside London, the latest phase of an executive housing development is underway. Within a week, the field will be a sea of mud and men. Within a year, it will support 50 houses. The sales force, charged with selling the country-style houses even before they've rolled off the production line, are the first to move in. The buyers are self-styled 'millennial ruralites', looking for peace and nature without the mud, isolation and other unsophisticated rural downfalls. Meanwhile, the true country-dwellers look on with interest. They too bought into the dream of rural life, and they know the dream doesn't always come true.
