BBC journalist Alexis Rowell changed everything when he realized the Arctic would melt in his lifetime. He sold his car, stopped flying, and drastically reduced his household waste. He and his partner Blanche Lepetit founded a permaculture farm and learning center in France called La Grande Raisandiîre, or "The Big Raise," teaching people new ways to grow nutritious food while actively repairing the soil. Their low-impact living addresses the current environmental crisis, and promotes a more reciprocal relationship between humans and the rest of the natural world. They incorporate solar panels, EV chargers, rainwater capture, forest gardens, composting, and more. The film follows their small farm through lively workshops and autumn harvest.
