See more Heather 10/11/2023 Finally, a movie that doesnt just tell us everything weve done to destroy our planet with ominous warnings of doom if we dont do something to change but a thoughtful, easy to understand, well laid out and clear SOLUTION. This film should be played in every high school in the country. See more Tacitus M @Bee_Love Jan 16 Some great ideas about regenerating the soil and farming in tune with nature vs industrial farming. Some completely irrational nonsense as well. Leah Penniman is completely delusional about everything. I got a good laugh listening to her. See more Maggie B Oct 10 From climate challenges to community struggles, it is clear that the way our world produces food has affected the entire Earth. Little did I know, farmers across the country were already practicing the very method that could reverse these issues, while also healing our beloved planet. Directed by Joshua and Rebecca Tickell, Common Ground completely opened my eyes to a movement that is not just about saving the Earth, but also about creating a better life for the people who live here. The film presents regenerative agriculture as a solution to these struggles, which is a farming practice that revives natural resources and works in harmony with Earth. The film ties together a number of stories from regenerative farmers and highly-educated activists who are challenging the industrial food system. By focusing on their personal experiences that compelled them to advocate for change, the film shows how switching to regenerative farming can provide hope for a sustainable future. As a viewer, I could feel the true importance and the weight this movement has on our planet. From cancer-causing pesticides appearing in our drinking water to drying lands due to climate change and CO2 emissions, the film describes how these current issues raise concerns for everyone across the globe. However, Common Ground supplements each of these problems with hopeful, feasible, and current solutions that transcend feelings of positivity and motivation to those watching. Furthermore, the cinematography done by Simon Balderas and Joaquim Pujol was absolutely remarkable. With sweeping aerial views of gorgeous landscapes, candid footage of working farmers with great personalities, and powerful time-lapses that capture land coming back to life, the film truly made me feel like I was a part of the stories that were being told. Overall, Common Ground is both moving and empowering. With unforgettable visuals and inspiring solutions, it shows that a better future is not only possible but already happening, and we can all be a part of it! I highly recommend it to anyone, as all audiences will be impacted by the messages and artistic elements that are incorporated into this astonishing cinematic experience.
