FOOD, INC opens June 12th in SF, LA, and NYC

Hungry For Change?

Synopsis

In Food, Inc., filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our nation's
food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that's been
hidden from the American consumer with the consent of our government's
regulatory agencies, USDA and FDA. Our nation's food supply is now
controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of
consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of
workers and our own environment. We have bigger-breasted chickens, the
perfect pork chop, insecticide-resistant soybean seeds, even tomatoes
that won't go bad, but we also have new strains of e coli--the harmful
bacteria that causes illness for an estimated 73,000 Americans
annually. We are riddled with widespread obesity, particularly among
children, and an epidemic level of diabetes among adults.

Featuring interviews with such experts as Eric Schlosser (Fast Food
Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore's Dilemma) along with forward
thinking social entrepreneurs like Stonyfield Farm's Gary Hirshberg
and Polyface Farms' Joe Salatin, Food, Inc. reveals surprising -- and
often shocking truths -- about what we eat, how it's produced, who we
have become as a nation and where we are going from here.
