Modern industrial agriculture is destroying the earth: water scarcity, toxic cocktails of agricultural chemicals pervading our food chains, ocean ecosystem collapse, soil erosion and massive loss of soil fertility. Humanity’s increasing demands are exceeding the Earth’s carrying capacity.

Across India marginal farmers are reviving an arcane form of agriculture and exposing the bio-colonialism of multinational corporations and their failed mantra of infinite growth in a finite world. This film tells their story through the teachings of an elderly New Zealander many are calling the new Gandhi.

A blueprint for a post-industrial future, One Man, One Cow, One Planet takes you into the heart of the world’s most important renaissance. The outcome of the battle for agricultural control in India may just dictate the future of the earth.

A simple recipe to save the world? One old man and a bucket of cow-dung: Are you crazy? Featuring Peter Proctor, New Zealand’s father of modern biodynamics. We will also show his short film Perfect Compost, featuring Peter who has been a biodynamic farmer in New Zealand for over 60 years. Peter walks you through every step to building perfect compost.

Rudolf Steiner believed biodynamic compoast was the foundation of humanity and the vital link between the cosmos and the earth.

A really brilliant film.
