About
Derek vs Derek is a documentary about two neighbouring farmers in the rolling hills of Devon who share the same name but take radically different approaches to land use. It was made by award-winning director James Dawson and features Derek Banbury and Derek Gow. The film is by turns hilarious and moving, and shines a light on the debate about the future of rural Britain, encouraging conversation about how farming and nature restoration might work together.

Critics
7.5Very good
Critics praise the film's humour, its sharp environmental argument and the vivid, memorable portraits of the two farmers. Some find the debate one-sided and at times condescending towards the farming viewpoint.
