Film: Common Ground
COMMON GROUND
Co-Directors: Josh Tickell and Rebecca Tickell
Winner Tribeca Human/Nature Award
Winner Best Documentary Audience Award at Palm Springs International Film Festival
Common Ground is a rousing and uplifting feature-length documentary that shows a pathway to transform our unhealthy and corrupt industrial agricultural food system into an ecological way of growing food that can restore our health, our communities, and our climate. The film chronicles the budding “Regenerative Agriculture” movement, a type of farming based on working with nature, instead of against it.
Directed by eco-filmmaking duo, Josh Tickell and Rebecca Tickell, (FUEL, The Big Fix, Kiss the Ground), the new film features appearances and narration by notable Hollywood talent including Laura Dern, Jason Momoa, Rosario Dawson, Woody Harrelson, Ian Somerhalder, and Donald Glover. The star-studded narration is structured as a heartfelt letter to our children’s generation – the very generation who will soon inherit the Earth. The letter, and the film itself, are an urgent message about the harsh realities of our future, as well as a hopeful and practical plan for how to mend the broken systems that dictate human existence on Earth.
