Our Daily Bread, Nikolaus Geyrhalter, Austria 2005, 92 mins
Our Daily Bread is a movie sans narration that looks into the vast world of industrial agriculture. To the rhythm of conveyor belts and immense machines the film looks, without commenting, into the places where European food is produced: monumental spaces, surreal landscapes and bizarre sounds – a cool, industrial environment which leaves little space for individualism. This film is the ‘Manufactured Landscapes’ of food production.
**Note: some scenes are challenging to watch, viewer discretion is advised.

Fresh: The Movie, ana Sofia joanes, USA, 2009, 72 mins
FRESH celebrates the farmers, thinkers and business people across America who are re-inventing their food system. Each has witnessed the rapid transformation of their agriculture into an industrial model, and confronted the consequences: food contamination, environmental pollution, depletion of natural resources, and morbid obesity. Forging healthier, sustainable alternatives, they offer a practical vision for a future of our food and our planet. www.freshthemovie.com
