German premiere of "Our Soil is Our Heritage" in Berlin
The documentary "Our Soil is Our Heritage" celebrated its German premiere with great success in the Babylon cinema in Berlin on 1 October. Director Marc Uhlig, TV cook and film patron Sarah Wiener as well as organic gardener David Steyer from Solidarische Landwirtschaft, both also protagonists, presented the film personally. Under the moderation of soil expert Bernward Geier, they discussed the documentary in the following film talk: it shows not only the importance but also the extreme threat to our livelihood, the soil. We use it as if it were inexhaustible. But our planet needs 2000 years to form ten centimetres of fertile soil. But each and every one of us can contribute to the preservation of this precious resource, whether as a farmer, gardener or supermarket consumer! Among the audience was Oscar winner Volker Schlöndorff, who was very enthusiastic: "The soil is like a skin on our planet. How the film depicts this is simply breathtaking!"
