Dirt! The Movie takes a humorous look into the history and current state of the living organic matter that we come from and will later return to. Join us at a screening sponsored by the Ojai Valley Green Coalition on Saturday, June 26, at the Ojai Theatre. Making a special appearance at the screening will be Andy Lipkis, the founder of TreePeople.
Did you know that one teaspoon of dirt contains a billion organisms working in remarkable balance to maintain and sustain a series of complex, thriving communities that impact our daily lives? Come learn more than you ever knew about dirt, its history, and its current need for healing remediation. You won't be bored! In addition to real-life scenes, the movie uses animated sequences to illuminate the topic in an engaging, multilayered fashion.
The movie takes viewers to more than 20 locations throughout the world, including vineyards in Northern California; a fish-composting center in Maine; Instituto Terra in southern Brazil; the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City; the Land Institute in Kansas; the town of Chimayo, New Mexico; New York’s Rikers Island prison system; rural France and its dry August heat; rural India, where (in a world that tourists rarely see) farmers are trapped in a loan economy; and Los Angeles for an interview with TreePeople founder Andy Lipkis.
The film will be shown at 4:30 P.M. on Saturday, June 26 at the Ojai Theatre.
