DIRT! Film Showing - June 26
http://www.ojaivalleygreencoalition.org/
Dirt! The Movie takes a humorous look into the history and current 
state of the living organic matter that we come from and will later 
return to. Join us at a screening sponsored by the Ojai Valley Green 
Coalition on Saturday, June 26, at the Ojai Theatre. Making a special 
appearance at the screening will be Andy Lipkis, the founder of 
TreePeople.

Did you know that one teaspoon of dirt contains a billion organisms 
working in remarkable balance to maintain and sustain a series of 
complex, thriving communities that impact our daily lives? Come learn 
more than you ever knew about dirt, its history, and its current need 
for healing remediation. You won't be bored! In addition to real-life 
scenes, the movie uses animated sequences to illuminate the topic in 
an engaging, multilayered fashion.

The movie takes viewers to more than 20 locations throughout the 
world, including vineyards in Northern California; a fish-composting 
center in Maine; Instituto Terra in southern Brazil; the Cathedral of 
St. John the Divine in New York City; the Land Institute in Kansas; 
the town of Chimayo, New Mexico; New York's Rikers Island prison 
system; rural France and its dry August heat; rural India, where (in 
a world that tourists rarely see) farmers are trapped in a loan 
economy; and Los Angeles for an interview with TreePeople founder 
Andy Lipkis.

The film will be shown at 4:30 P.M. on Saturday, June 26 at the Ojai Theatre.
