Sustenance

This is a line I use often in discussions about our future - 'we must not forget'... we must not forget what has happened in order that we have a chance that we might work to improve things... but while we are hell bent on 'our own lives' we can justify destruction and slavery at every turn. This doco is for everyone who eats and lives in the modern world. We MUST be prepared to PAY properly for food that is grown sustainably - while we demand cheap we will only get what we have been getting: a system that keeps justifying destruction and slavery in order to supply you with cheap food. If you ever grown a lettuce you will KNOW that the few dollars that you pass the the supermarket for a lettuce is not enough to cover the cost for a farmer to grow it and while they are having to make cheap (because that is what you demand) they will cut corners for short term profit... destroying the land and providing you with hollow food. Vote with your money pay the right price! We choose our future in every choice. This is a wonderfully brave documentary that opens the door to the reality of our commodity food system... I hope all who view it will take the time to dig even deeper and support local growers who support the earth. Thank you Yasi and all involved in making this!

A very insightful documentary on food production and how it has changed over centuries. Focus is given to understanding the causal effects of these changes as well as our direct involvement/reaction to these changes. We all have freewill. The freewill to choose what we see best for ourselves. However, with our choices, one must ask how in-depth our understanding of our specific food choice is, and what are the direct effects of them. This documentary does an excellent job at exploring these different thoughts as it relates to food and challenges its' viewers through the idea of sustainability.

I was extremely impressed by the depth of this document. As a former vegetarian, I thought I was doing what was best for my body and planet. This documentary opened my eyes to see how our choices in the kitchen have an impact globally. I highly recommend this documentary to anyone who is looking for a fresh take on holistic eating.

Daringly critiquing our mainstream corporate food monopolies while challenging friends to better understand and realize what is sustainable regarding food consumption, food production, the environment, and the health of our planet Earth. What we can do, as Allan Savory says, "We are running out of time, but not out of time yet".

Very educational and informative, well done documentary to help us to found right food and right diet, show us the dangers if we don't take care of our Mother Earth, very convincing in a difficult and important subject.
