Featuring Michael Pollan and based on his best-selling book, this special takes viewers on an exploration of the human relationship with the plant world — seen from the plants' point of view.

have *you* ever considered the existential predicament of the apple? ...that's what i thought.

Fascinating and engaging. This film provokes a lot of thought about human relationship to plants. Also has a lot of amusing factoids.

So intriguing the idea that plants have co-evolved to control us: the apple - sweetness, the potato - sustenance, the tulip - beauty, and marijuana - pleasure.

Incredible! Such a good documentary (it's also a book)! There's so much information on the history and cultivation of the four plants they talk about, and it's super interesting. This film also reaffirmed how much I love plants. At one point I actually sighed, "Oh, angiosperms!" with a smile on my face. I then realized how ridiculous that is (in a good way).
