There is a revolution happening in the farm fields and on your dinner table. A revolution that is transforming the very nature of the food we eat. THE FUTURE OF FOOD offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind the unlabeled, patented, genetically engineered foods (GMO) that have quietly filled grocery store shelves for the past decade. From the prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada to the fields of Oaxaca, Mexico, this film gives a voice to farmers whose lives and livelihoods have been negatively impacted by this new technology. The health implications, government policies and push towards globalization are all part of the reason why many people are alarmed by the introduction of genetically altered crops into our food supply. Shot on location in the United States, Canada and Mexico, THE FUTURE OF FOOD examines the complex web of market and political forces that are changing what we eat as huge multinational corporations seek to control the world's food system. The film also explores alternatives to large-scale industrial agriculture, placing organic and sustainable agriculture as real solutions to the farm crisis today. |

Customer Reviews:Jocelyn Bishop (Monday, 18 September 2006)Rating:  Please buy this DVD and lend it to all your friends. Watching it will make you as mad as can be and I hope you will feel really angry. That is the only way we will keep GMO foods out of Australia. While I thought that I knew a lot about the greed of multinational corporations, I had no idea of the extent of the problem until I watched this film. Joss |
