(More customer reviews)No stars on this one. Don't be duped by this cynical production designed to prey on your wallet with no expertise to justify the making. The makers of this DVD have no training or expertise on how to build with dirt bags and the production is nothing but a home video type of demonstration of their lack of knowledge and training. Not a how-to production, it chronicles this couple's moving from one building disaster of their own creation to another as they attempt to figure out how to build themselves a house made of dirt filled bags. With so much information put out by Nader Khalili on this topic, why this couple didn't bother to educate themselves on the basic principles of this building style before they started is a mystery. The product they end up with looks like an artless, lopsided, unattractive and possibly dangerous conglomeration. What a shame that the wrong people made a much needed DVD on this topic.

Kelly and Rosana Hart wanted to build an environmentally sensitive and aesthetically pleasing home at a moderate price. They chose to create earthbag domes covered with papercrete(recycled paper combined with some sand and cement). This honest program documents details of construction, insights gained, and the ups and downs (literally) of the building process. Several other earthbag homes are also shown.
