Driving along a country road in Ohio, a family spots watercress growing wild on the roadside. They gather up as much as they can with rusty scissors and an old paper bag, all wading into the muddy water. Initially, the girl is embarrassed by her family stopping to gather watercress from a ditch, questioning why they can’t simply buy food from the grocery store like other families.
