FREE MOVIE: Dirt!

Dirt! 
The
 Movie


Dirt!
 The
 Movie 
is 
an 
insightful
 and
 timely 
film 
that 
tells 
the 
story
 of 
the 
glorious
 and
 unappreciated
 material
 beneath 
our 
feet.
 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.


Inspired
 by
 William 
Bryant
 Logan’s
 acclaimed 
book
 Dirt:
 The
 Ecstatic 
Skin
 of 
the
 Earth,
 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.
 An
 eclectic
 group 
of 
participants 
ranging
 from 
biologists
 to
 prisoners 
incarcerated
 on
 Rikers 
Island 
offer 
answers
 to
 problems 
and
 inspire
 us
 to 
clean 
up 
the
 mess 
that
 we’ve
 created.
 Dirt!
 The 
Movie
 will
 make
 you 
want 
to
 get
 dirty.
