“Dirt” - This movie takes you inside the wonders of the soil.

Made from the same elements as the stars, plants and animals, and us, “dirt is very much alive.” Though, in modern industrial pursuits and clamor for profit and natural resources, our human connection to and respect for soil has been disrupted. Drought, climate change, even war are all directly related to the way we are treating dirt. Thursday, 4 p.m., Sun People Dry Goods, 32 W. Second Ave. Free. No Preregistration Required.
