Common Ground documentary (2023) - Official Trailer
From the filmmakers of ‘Kiss the Ground’ (Netflix) comes the follow-up documentary ‘Common Ground,’ recipient of the Tribeca Film Festival 2023 Human/Nature Award. In select theaters in the US starting September 27th, 2023. https://commongroundfilm.org
Sobering yet hopeful, ‘Common Ground’ exposes the toxic interconnections of American farming policy, politics, and health, by sharing stories of destruction and healing across the United States and beyond, and how regenerative agriculture and soil health plays a vitally important role in changing these systems for the better. At it's root, it explores how people from different walks of life, different political backgrounds, and different places share one thing in common – the very soil beneath their feet.
The film is directed by Josh and Rebecca Tickell, who have created bold and inspiring environmental films for many years (Kiss the Ground, On Sacred Ground, Regenerate Ojai, Fuel, The Big Fix), while winning coveted awards along the way from Sundance, Cannes, Red Nation, and Tribeca.
The film features celebrity actors, activists and philanthropists Rosario Dawson, Laura Dern, Donald Glover, Woody Harrelson, Jason Momoa, and Ian Somerhalder, along with interviews with Gabe Brown, Jonathan Lundgren Ph.D, Mark Hyman M.D., Leah Penniman, Ray Archuleta, Toby Kiers, Ph.D, Allejandro Carillo, Carey Gillam, Kelsey Ducheneaux-Scott, Kara Boyd, Robyn O'Brien, Rick Clark, and many other farmers, ranchers, scientists, educators, allies and beyond.
In addition to warning the next generation, the narrators provide hope for ways to fix broken systems. “As parents of two young children, ‘Common Ground’ is not only a love letter to our kids, but all of the co-narrators of the film are also writing the letter to their children,” co-director Rebecca Tickell https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/donald-glover-jason-momoa-common-ground-documentary-clip-1235510404/
Common Ground had it’s world premiere at Tribeca Film Festival, receiving the 2023 Human/Nature Award, “…a prize established to amplify a film that best exemplifies solution-oriented environmental storytelling.” https://tribecafilm.com/films/common-ground-2023

As an independent film production, when you share the trailer and the film with your friends and family, and join us in theaters for the premieres, it makes a big difference. Without the luxury of multi-million dollar budgets, every share and every ticket is an act of supporting Common Ground. And that grass roots support will help the solution-driven movement and support regenerative leaders in their mission to transition 100+ million acres into 'Regenerative Agriculture' practices by 2035. We can all find our common ground through this movement to heal the soil, our food systems, our health, and the planet. No action is too small, and ever acre counts. From urban gardens to large ranches, composting to food production, ecological restoration projects to curriculum in the classroom (and in the fields), we can do this if we work together.
Join the movement, and help us grow the film and the movement far and wide!
