Mushrooms may not kill cancer or reduce the anxiety of dying, but how would we know unless they are researched?

This is a visually satisfying film about mycology. It shows many of the ways we depend on fungus and how many more ways we could use it. It hints at the War on Drugs, and how it set back research 50 years. It does not talk about the double problems of Big Pharma or the petrochemical business in hampering it, but it should.

We live in a wonderful world, of which we are a small part. We should be grateful for the oddballs who are trying new ways to save us.
