The Story Of Food

Storyline

The Story of Food - a 'No Fresh Carbon Footprint' documentary in nine parts, tracing the trail of devastations bringing us to the point where we are today. The brink of a point. The population explosion of the cultivated human; disasters - climatic for the planet-body, pandemic for the human; fast depleting resources; scoured oceans and hollowed out earth; thorough poisoning - inside out; the gaping holes in the web of life; the systemic decay - within and without. A wrecked planet, the wretched life. Food being the thread that connects us to life; and the way we obtain our food being the thread that connects us to a way of life, the movie begins by examining - the first milestone on the trail - our agri-culture, our very relationship with the land. And thus, consequently, bringing the focus of investigation to questioning - our very Way of Life.
