Reel Earth - Six Inches of Soil

For our third Reel Earth event: A season of films about climate and nature - and in partnership with Climate Action Bovey Heathfield and First Draft Books, we are delighted to bring "Six Inches of Soil" to Paradiso.

The inspiring story of British farmers standing up against the industrial food system and transforming the way they produce food - to heal the soil, benefit our health and provide for local communities.

Agroecology is an approach to farming that includes ‘regenerative’ farming techniques that work in harmony with, rather than against nature. It focuses on local food systems and shorter supply chains. The advantages are numerous: we get to know who is growing our food and how, farmers get paid a fair price and have the satisfaction of producing healthy food in a healthy environment.  Agroecology may also be our best chance in the face of climate change: it keeps carbon in the ground and creates resilient systems in the face of climate uncertainty.

Six Inches of Soil is a story of courage, vision and hope. 

Director: Colin Ramsay
