*‘**This splendid film gives us insights into Lynn Margulis’ prolific
career; and into the woman, whose vitality explodes across the screen with
the force of a slow-motion supernova. I was by no means the only person who
came away feeling I’d just witnessed a fifth force of nature.’  ~  **Science
writer Margaret Wertheim*

*From the Press Release:*

*Symbiotic Earth* is the story of a scientific rebel. A model of female
empowerment, Lynn Margulis fought the male establishment and, through her
persistence, triumphed. As a young scientist in the 1960s, Margulis was
ridiculed when she articulated a theory that symbiosis was a key driver of
evolution. Instead of the mechanistic view that life evolved solely through
random genetic mutations and competition, she presented a symbiotic
narrative in which bacteria joined together to create the complex cells
that formed animals, plants, and all other organisms. The idea that all of
life is deeply interconnected and collaborative has radical implications
for how we look at and understand our selves, our species, our
relationships, our kin, sex, death, resilience, adaptability,
regenerativity, ecology, evolution, our changing environment and our
climate.
