I saw this on Netflix really such an eye opener I am Clinician trained in Western Medicine. We’re always discouraged to discuss alternative Medicine. I started my own research after I was diagnosed with an Autoimmune disease. I couldn’t find any cure in my Medical books and thats when I returned back to my Eastern roots and find healing in Spirituality. My mom is a Sufi Muslim and She taught me so much. I was completely off my meds. Don’t give up the cure is out there, sometimes we get lost in material World so much that we lose our spiritual self, the self that has a power to heal and love . Love you all, stay blessed. Lovely Documentary.

Mushrooms will change the world if people can realize how helpfully they would be to our society, humanity and ourselves. Psilocybin has changed my life for the better in so many ways. Excited for the future!! 💜

I am from Yunnan Province, China, which has 36% of the world's edible mushroom species and provides over 70% of the wild edible mushrooms in China. The love of wild mushrooms is in our bones and I am very impressed that there is a film that introduces the wonders and charms of wild mushrooms.

I live in SW France, in a small village, lost in the forest. A few months ago, I curated an exhibit on mushroom illustrations and hosted a viewing of this film. The audience loved it. Yesterday, I ran in to someone who had been at the event. He told me that the film had changed his life –for the better of course.

Just wanted to say thanks for helping to bring the importance of mushrooms to our little corner of the world.

This amazing film should be seen by everyone.

At the age of 13, i underwent spinal surgery that led me with some disabilities i thought i could never live by.
I tried schooling, some work around 24 and ultimately being an alcoholic for the rest of my life.
I was left with incontinence, erectile dysnfuction and premature ejaculation + plus generally bad childhood and an abusive stepdad.
For years ive suffered internally and of course the given, depression, anxiety, ocd and such.
I really thought at 30 id never heal. Sometimes i can find some fake motivation and will ultimately lead to the deeper throes of depression but not until shrooms came to my life.
All the fears and repressed feelings was given face.
All i had to do was submit myself to the journey or trip without snapping out of it.
I woke up after that trip like a newborn.
I've never felt so amazing in my life before.
Somehow or someway, these magical fungis will find you in time of need.

This movie was honestly life changing for me. Everyone everywhere should watch this. It will help you understand everything on a much higher plane of existence.

[ScottPortingale]

Been following this project for years. So great to see it released. Congrats to you, Paul, and everyone involved!

[jowutubu]

The best movie. It changed my view of live forever. I'm not a guy who was doing much with nature etc but when i watched this i cried and everything changed. (Yes im serious)

[rafaelmd]

I have killed my fungi net(in garden) using chemical fertilizers but when i started to do liquid organic fertilizers, something beyond my compreension starts. The soil is literally alive, and i never had plants that bealtiful. Micoriza miracle.

[NurseKate]

As a nurse AND a patient I applaud those who stand at one of the true frontiers of understanding. I’m excited to see the whole film!! I’ve heard lots and lots of good things about it.
Truly fascinating!

[HotgemClairCrawford]

Actually crying watching this today, it's everything

[teacher_ash]

Biology and environmental science classes really struggle to explain much of anything without this film.

It's like a fundamental scientific framework, full of principles, systems, and more, that explains life on Earth in much better detail than almost anything else I've ever seen.

[jocelynbouchard]

I got to watch it this afternoon! This film was an incredible summation of the value, largely masked potential, and essence of fungi to our very existence as human beings on planet Earth. It's truly magical what mushrooms are capable of 🍄😊

“And our World is fantastic.”
Truth to be told.

I couldn't help my tears falling for some reasons when I watched this video.
Just beautiful.

I do hope that NETFLIX Japan will carry this film ASAP because this is something everyone needs to watch.

[gustavfrankecinematography]

One of the best documentaries I’ve seen. Really what the world needs right now, is this level of awakening to our true nature.

[VibezLiveSA]

This is by far the best thing that we have watched. It is so rare to find something that leaves you forever changed. Something that awakens you and makes you question everything. We Just wanted to thank-you!!

Paul Stamets and Michael Pollan are BEASTS. I LOVE their curiousity and work.
