A unique documentary on the climate crisis, Kiss The Ground is premiering on Netflix in India today. The film is in English with Hindi subtitles. Directed by Joshua Tickell and Rebecca Harrell Tickell, narrated by Woody Harrelson, Kiss The Ground discusses climate crisis and features the world’s leading scientists, experts, and activists, artfully illustrating an accessible and relatively simple solution to humanity’s greatest challenge.
“This science in this film offers an unprecedented opportunity for countries like India to sequester carbon dioxide and stabilize greenhouse gasses while bolstering farming productivity. Never has the world needed healing as we do now. Kiss the Ground offers a way to heal our bodies, bolster our immune systems and heal our planet. This is a critical time for humanity and a critical movie for the world,” add Rebecca Tickell and Josh Tickell.
Kiss The Ground represents almost ten years and 300 hours of footage distilled into 87 minutes. It conveys complex concepts to the audience in an easily understandable way and is a call to action. The film team travelled the globe shooting footage on five continents, gathering material from NASA and NOAA, and conducting interviews with international scientists, leading experts, and activists such as our narrator Woody Harrelson, Gisele Bundchen, Tom Brady, Jason Mraz, Ian Somerhalder, Patricia Arquette, and Rosario Dawson.
