“Food, Inc.” is a new documentary from Richard Kenner that hopes to give us a better idea about where the mass-produced food most of us eat comes from. Check out the first 3 minutes and further details after the break…
Hoping to do more than just make meat-eaters feel guilty, angry or both - this film will explore the essence of a variety of different widely available foods, everything from vegetables and fruit to beef and bacon. The main focus of this film is not the food itself though - it is the corporate industry that controls the sourcing, processing, production and sale of food. Not only are animals being mistreated, abused and treated as slaves in the name of food production, but Humans are too.
Loosely based on Eric Schlosser’s non-fiction book Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal, but different to the fictional feature film of the same name starring Greg Kinnear, “Food, Inc.” will hit screens on a limited release in June and will be available to buy on DVD shortly after. Check out the opening 3 minutes of the film below:
