Seed: The Untold Story

See this documentary now, it is an eye opener and you will not be disappointed. Informative with compelling interviews (Vandana Shiva, Jane Goodall, etc.), great animation and telling you the truth about who controls seeds around the world which is often hidden nowadays. It will open your eyes and mind: communities need to be the owner of seeds not corporations.

"If you're relying someone else for your seed, it's like you're relying on someone else for your soul."

Truly a must see documentary to learn from. Masterfully crafted in such a way that all the pieces fit together leaving you awakened to a cooperate world war against freedom. I was touched by the plight of farmers in India and industries cultural manipulation so similar to what Syngenta has done on Kauai's westside community. Corporate critics will attack the altruistic efforts of individuals like Vandana Shiva, however angels rise above.

In Seed: The Untold Story, Directors Taggart Siegel and Jon Betz take us back to rethink that important relationship of communing with the earth that feeds us. "Seeds are living embryos.

There is a deep connection between these farmers and their seeds, which they see as living things that start a movement, blossoming into life and then sustenance.

The topic of seed conservation and food biodiversity is a very important topic in a world that normalize itself at a faster and faster pace. This documentary cover every aspects of the subject with concision and precision.

The production overuses the emotional component of the subject though. Covering important topic like this should not rely on emotion but rather on hard facts and with an accurate scientific perspective.

If you didn't already hate Monsanto before watching this documentary you might discover that you are capable of a whole new level of disgust and animosity.
