Watch an interview with the filmmakers here:

4 billion years ago life started on Earth. Where…in the dirt. We were born from it but tend to overlook it. Dirt: The Movie explores our relationship with our must undervalued resource. We need it just as much as clean water and clean air. Jamie Lee Curtis narrates this interesting tale of where dirt came from, how it is perhaps more alive than humans and what we are doing to it.
