Our food is losing its value, the soil its health, and the climate its stability.
A designer with farming roots and a trained chef ask themselves how agriculture can have a future. In TIAN, they meet people who not only work their land, but reimagine it – navigating tradition, economic pressure, and a desire for new paths.
What connects them is their closeness to the earth and a shared belief that change is possible.
The film follows choices that unfold quietly – yet have the power to move something within us.
