Holy Shit: Can Poop Save the World?

.

What happens to food after we digest it? Is it waste or a resource? Director Rubén Abruña explores this question by meeting Uganda’s Poop Pirates, who transform feces into safe fertilizer through education and song. In Sweden, an engineer demonstrates a dry toilet creating fertilizer from urine, while in Hamburg and Geneva, he finds sewer-free communities generating power and fertilizer from human waste. The film reveals sustainable methods to reuse excreta, enhancing global food security and addressing climate change.
