Synopsis— A traveling taxman lands on a prairie world colonized by a cantankerous pioneer farmer and his family. The men quarrel over money matters until their affection for the family daughter leads to a brawl. Meanwhile, another settler sights a troubling anomaly in the starry skies above their prairie home.
Filmed on dozens of video cassettes, Space Prairie began on paper in April of 2013, then filmed in 2015 – 2016 by an ensemble of high schoolers in the Midwest — over fifty days of no-budget principal photography followed by a gargantuan post-production.
