ABOUT THE FILM:
As a powerful follow-up to ‘Kiss the Ground’ (Netflix), ‘Common Ground’ is a sobering yet hopeful documentary investigating the often toxic interconnections of American farming and food systems, policy, business and health, and explores the destruction and healing across the United States and beyond. Sharing stories of folks utilizing and supporting regenerative agriculture, the film explores how these practices restore the soil, produce tremendous quantities of nutritionally dense, chemical free food, and balance the climate while bringing entire ecosystems back to life...and how people from different walks of life share one thing in common: the very soil beneath their feet.
FEATURING:
The film is directed by Josh and Rebecca Tickell and features narrators Rosario Dawson, Laura Dern, Donald Glover, Woody Harrelson, Jason Momoa, and Ian Somerhalder, along with interviews with Gabe Brown, Jonathan Lundgren, Mark Hyman, Kara Brewer Boyd, Ray Archuleta, Allejandro Carillo, Carey Gillam, Leah Penniman, Robyn O'Brien, and many other farmers, ranchers, scientists, allies and beyond.

As an independent film production, when you share the film with your friends and family, and join us in theaters for the premieres, it makes a big difference. We don't have the luxury of multi-million dollar budgets, so every share and every ticket is an act of supporting the film and the movement to restore our soil, health and planet. Your actions will also ensure we aren’t being filtered or censored for sharing the truth of our food and agriculture systems. Your grassroots support alongside the hard work of farmers and allies, will help us achieve the goal of transitioning 100 million acres of farm and ranch land to regenerative agriculture practices. Every acre counts. Go to 100millionacres.org to learn more and make the pledge.
Thanks for your support.
