Synopsis

This film, the first in a series, covers the therapeutic and energetic qualities of medicinal plants of the forest, field and garden. Reconnecting with the plant kingdom, as well as global healing traditions such as Ayurveda, might just be the most rewarding investment we can make – not only for ourselves, but also for our planet and all future generations.
