FILM OF THE WEEK
Back to Eden: Simple. Sustainable. Solutions.
Back to Eden is a new feature documentary that follows one man's
revolutionary approach to organic gardening. "It's all about the
covering!" is how Paul Gautschi enthusiastically describes his gardening
method that mimics the self sustaining design of nature. The film shows
how gardeners and farmers worldwide can easily transform their
agricultural practice into a simple and productive process of growing
food. Revealing critical issues such as soil preparation, fertilization,
irrigation, weed and pest control, crop rotation, and pH issues, the
documentary focuses on proactive solutions, leaving the delving into the
background politics to preceding documentary films such as Food, Inc.
and Dirt! Back to Eden offers not only a fresh perspective on critical
environmental issues but digs deeper into true stories of experiencing
faith, seeking relationship and the power of forming community.
Highlighted interviews include specialists in human ecology, nutrition,
horticulture, and agriculture.
