Where Everybody Knows Your Name

Description:Everyone in Farrville is from the same family. It is so small, it has no businesses, no schools, no playgrounds and no residents. Yet every year, the town council, with families-named-Farr in tow--drop in from all over the country to approve council minutes, the treasury, and preserve the town charter. The mythical suburb exists nowhere except on the Indiana map. Interviews with Mary Farr Storey; Daniel Love, Larry Whinery, Wendy Bunch, Marjorie Gard, Edith Whinery Smith.
