Every week in North America over ten thousand hectares of farmland are given over to housing, highways and shopping plazas. As well, the continued use of chemicals is depleting soil fertility at the most rapid rate in history. Wonderland takes stock of what is happening to agricultural soil--and the people who cultivate it. Focusing on British Columbia, the film includes interviews with farmers, agronomists and agriculturalists who discuss legislation to protect arable land; dependence on food imports; increased food production through the cultivation of home gardens; engineered, good-looking but tasteless foods. Underlying the statistics and hard facts, the film makes a plea for change; the soil, which is the seedbed of life, is being abused.
