Brodin, Mark. Delafield. Des Moines, Iowa, US: Mark Brodi, Producer
Recommended By: National Catholic Rural Life ConferenceTo Acquire Contact: Mark Brodin, Producer, 4201 15th Ave. S., Minneapolis, MN, 55407. Tel: (612) 824-2832Notes: "In 1998, the congregation of Delafield Evangelical Lutheran Church in rural, southwestern Minnesota celebrated its 125th year. Within four months of this milestone, the congregation disbanded, auctioned off its goods and transferred the building's title; the looming, beloved white church was hauled off to a tourist site near an interstate highway. The Delafield congregation and church become potent metaphors for the dissolution of American rural communities." 60 min. English. (Media Rights)
