Shadows at Home
Overview:
The Gintoftgaard farmstead has been run by the Petersen family for 16 generations. Many people have lived and loved here, fought for their place in society, and adapted – in good times and in bad, in poverty and in wealth. Traces of them can be found in some corners; in others, there’s only dust. A farm looks back on its history.
