The Future of Food (2004, 91 minutes)

There is a revolution happening in the farm fields and on the dinner tables of America—a revolution that is transforming the very nature of the food we eat. The Future of Food offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind the unlabeled, patented, genetically engineered foods that have quietly filled grocery store shelves for the past decade. From the prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada, to the fields of Oaxaca, Mexico, this film gives a voice to farmers whose lives and livelihoods have been negatively impacted by this new technology.

Director Deborah Koons Garcia (widow of Jerry) tells us genetically engineered crops have undermined cultivation methods that have been refined over thousands of years. Exploring a gamut of issues from so-called suicide seeds to lax food-safety enforcement laws, and from the controversy over patented genes to infected cornfields, the film is a comprehensive and chilling call to arms against GMOs. It played a role in the passage of Measure H, which banned the use of GMO farming within Mendocino County, California last March.
