"If you eat food, you need to see The Future of Food." NewsTarget.com
"This stylish film is not just for food faddists and nutritionists.
It is a look at something we might not want to see: Monsanto, Roundup and Roundup-resistant seeds, collectively wreaking havoc on American farmers and our agricultural neighbors around the world. In the end, this documentary is a eloquent call to action."

Genetically Engineered Food
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. The Future of Food offers an in-depth investigation into
the disturbing truth behind the unlabeled, patented, genetically engineered foods that have
quietly filled U.S. grocery store shelves for the past decade.
Farming and Globalization
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.
 Multinational
Corporations and the Food Supply
Shot on location in the U.S., 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.
