“The new documentary Common Ground, from the filmmakers behind Kiss the Ground, is a hopeful and uplifting story of the pioneers of the ‘Regenerative Movement’ who produce tremendous quantities of nutritionally dense food and are working to balance the climate — all while bringing our entire ecosystem back to life. The film explores how Americans from different walks of life, different political backgrounds, and different parts of the country share one thing in common — the very soil beneath their feet. The film investigates the power of ‘regenerative’ farming systems — from large to small-scale farmers who are the champions of soil health as the key to unlocking more (and healthier) food to feed America and the world.”

The documentary features familiar faces like Laura Dern, Rosario Dawson, Jason Mamoa, Woody Harrelson, Donald Glover, and Ian Somerhalder. The film runs at 105 minutes and is not rated.
