Sara Lamm, Director
As part of THE GREEN, Sundance Channel presents a series of documentary films focusing on timely and pressing environmental issues of the day.
Documentary filmmaker Sara Lamm reveals the fascinating story of the man who created "Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap," the counter-culture favorite known for its mystifying, microscopic-type-filled label. Behind the label is a tale of a genius chemist who escaped the Nazis, claimed Albert Einstein as a relative, warned that fluoridation was a Communist plot, neglected his children to save Space Ship Earth, escaped a barbaric American mental hospital, and founded a very successful independent business in order to spread his philosophy of world peace.
