Summary:
The vast area of the American prairie tells the story of a 150 year experiment: the settlement of the American plains. The radical plan of a scientist couple from New York is to make the Great Plains public property, a common area, and reverse it to its original condition. Project Buffalo Commons is the attempt to turn back the clock to the time before the settlement. The intended goal is that a rise in tourism and highly efficient buffalo meat production will provide people of this region with security and a new future.
