Common Ground profiles a hopeful and uplifting movement of white, black, and indigenous farmers who are using alternative “regenerative” models of agriculture that could balance the climate, save our health, and stabilize America’s economy – before it’s too late. Screening here on February 23rd, 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 cast includes Laura Dern, Rosario Dawson, Jason Mamoa, Woody Harrelson, Ian Somerhalder, and Donald Glover.
