The Future of Food is a 90-minute documentary by Deborah Koons Garcia
offering an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind the
unlabeled GMO products that have quietly filled grocery store shelves
over the past decade. From the test tube, to the farm field, to the
supermarket, the film follows the personal stories of the farmers in the
U.S. and Canada who have been sued by large multi-national corporations
for continuing the time-honored tradition of saving seeds; of the
scientists in the U.S. and Europe who have been censored for raising
serious public and environmental health concerns; and finally, of the
consumers, who are beginning to question why this has escaped the
attention of both the media and the Federal agencies in charge of
keeping our food safe. The Future of Food unravels the complex web of
market and political forces that are changing the nature of what we eat.
Food has gone from being a basic need to part of a larger billion dollar
battle to control the world's food production. Read more about this film
