About

You can stream The Dig (2021) on Netflix with a subscription.

As WWII looms, a wealthy widow hires an amateur archaeologist to excavate the burial mounds on her estate. When they make a historic discovery, the echoes of Britain's past resonate in the face of its uncertain future‎.

As the shadow of World War II stretches across the English countryside, an obsessive excavation seeks to reclaim a forgotten civilization before the world burns itself down. This quiet, tactile period piece finds profound meaning in the dirt and bone of the past.
