event background
There is a revolution happening in the farm fields and on the dinner tables of America - a revolution that is transforming the very nature of the food we eat.

From the prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada to the fields of Oaxaca, 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.

From farmers whose lives and livelihoods have been negatively impacted to the little-known effects on human and environmental health, this film shows viewers why the introduction of genetically altered crops into our food supply is cause for alarm, and explores safer, more sustainable alternatives to large-scale industrial agriculture.

Co-presented with Biodemocracy Conference: www.reclaimthecommons.net - www.biodev.org
