Synopsis

Through the eyes of passionate biologist and writer Merlin Sheldrake, join us  on this brilliant round-the-world journey into the secret world of  fungi. Through dazzling images of fungi under the microscope, and all  around us in the forest, Merlin unravels the many secrets of these  essential organisms in the web of life. So much more than mushrooms, not  only do fungi shape the weather and support life on land, they are at  the cutting edge of medical research and even have the power to break  down plastic waste.
