The magic beneath us
Documentary
Synopsis
A vivid journey into the mysterious subterranean world of mycelium and its fruit— the mushroom. A story that begins 3.5 billion years ago, fungi makes the soil that supports life, connecting vast systems of roots from plants and trees all over the planet, like an underground Internet. Through the eyes of renowned mycologist Paul Stamets, professor of forest ecology Suzanne Simard, best selling author Michael Pollan, food naturalist Eugenia Bone and others, we experience the power, beauty and complexity of the fungi kingdom.

Was hoping for something educational; wound up with more of a PR campaign for fungi. I would have loved a much more in depth exploration of a few of the many topics breezed through here.

Everybody should watch this, and take some magic mushrooms after. It will change your life there is so much more than this standard life we all live

This is a 'must watch' documentary. Do yourself a favor! We are talking about heavy names in the psychedelic renaissance.

Stamets' mycelium documentary with genuine scientific enthusiasm — the time-lapse photography is extraordinary. Persuasive case for fungal intelligence as legitimate inquiry. Consumed willingly.
