In celebration of World Soil Day, Greener Henley with Green Screen present Merlin Sheldrake’s Fungi – The Web of Life narrated by Bjork.

There is also a recorded Q&A with Merlin at the beginning of the film.

Acclaimed British biologist, Dr. Merlin Sheldrake, is on a quest to find an incredibly precious blue mushroom, against the backdrop of Tasmania’s ancient Tarkine rain forest. Merlin will show us some the grandest and strangest organisms ever discovered, showcased through jaw-dropping time-lapse cinematography, in a landscape largely unchanged from the time of the dinosaurs. Fungi have important lessons to teach humanity about survival through cooperation. Indeed, these incredible lifeforms may hold the key to solving some of humanity’s most urgent problems. With millions more species to discover, our journey into the secret world of fungi has only just begun.

Green Screen is a community-led space to discuss environmentally-focused cinema, with expert panels and friendly post-screening discussions. Everyone is welcome to ‘continue the conversation’ after the film in your cinema’s meeting space where you can enjoy a free tea or filter coffee when you bring a keep cup!
