The Future of Food

There is a revolution happening in the farm fields and on the dinner tables of Americaï¿½
-- 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 behindï¿½
the unlabeled, patented, genetically engineered foods that have quietly filled U.S. groceryï¿½
store shelves for the past decade.From the prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada to the fieldsï¿½
of Oaxaca, Mexico, this film gives a voice to farmers whose lives and livelihoods have beenï¿½
negatively impacted by this new technology. The health implications, government policiesï¿½
and push towards globalization are all part of the reason why many people are alarmed byï¿½
the introduction of genetically altered crops into our food supply.

Shot on location in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, THE FUTURE OF FOOD examines theï¿½
complex web of market and political forces that are changing what we eat as huge multinationalï¿½
corporations seek to control the world's food system.    .
