The Brauns started farming organically in 1984. This documentary film explores the day-to-day operation of their farm in Bavaria. Among other things, it shows how vital earthworms are for soil fertility.
Dirt! The Movie takes a humorous and substantial look into the history and current state of the living organic matter that we come from and will later return to.
The film highlights the pollution of the Baltic Sea from agricultural run-off and wastewaters, particularly in the Kocinka catchment of Poland. It offers multiple perspectives from the range of stakeholders, and is the outcome of the Soils2Sea project which ran from 2014 to 2017.
