Special Film Exhibition
The Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History presents:
Matters of Life and Death
SSI: Soil Science Investigators
Dig into in the who-eats-who world of life, death, and decay while watching this “underground” film, edited to the beat of CSI: Miami. This killer
10-minute detective story explores the micro- and macroscopic food web found in the soil. Who knew science could be so dirty?
The Matters of Life and Death film was produced by the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History for the Dig It! Secrets of Soil exhibition. Dig It! was made possible by support from founding sponsor the Soil Science Society of America and leading sponsor the Nutrients for Life Foundation.
