::: SYNOPSIS :::
1904: the Wright Brothers have just made the world's first powered flight. Belfast is booming with the largest shipyard, ropeworks and cigarette manufacturers in the world. Meanwhile on Coshkib Farm in the Glens of Antrim, things are going on as they have done for centuries.

2004: Coshkib Farm has been reassembled stone by stone in the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, complete with fields and farm animals. But could a 2004 family live for six weeks on the farm as they would have in 1904?

The McGrath family from urban Belfast have volunteered to find out. It is a gripping portrait of a family going through a unique experience.
