The Little Things That Run The World Blu-ray presents Doug Hawes-Davis and Dru Carr’s 2025 documentary from High Plains Films. The film explores the vital role of flying insects, whose numbers are rapidly declining despite their essential place in ecosystems around the world.
 
Through scientists, nature lovers, gardeners, farmers and bug enthusiasts, the documentary examines why insects have been called the “glue of life” on Earth. As the most numerous group of animals on the planet, insects help hold ecosystems together, yet evidence suggests their decline in some parts of the world is approaching catastrophic levels.
 
Thoughtful, urgent and grounded in both science and human action, The Little Things That Run The World looks at what is causing this extinction crisis and what can be done to reverse it. This Region Free Blu-ray release includes the feature documentary in English stereo audio with slipcover packaging.
