Future Movies
- Winter 2012
- Friday, February 17, 7:00 pm, "The Fight for True Farming". In her documentary "The Fight for True Farming", Eve Lamont questions the future of our agriculture. Filmed in Canada, France and the US, it shows grim lucidity but also irrepressible hope. Driven by the forces of globalization, agribusiness is harming the environment and threatening the survival of farms. A current of resistance, bringing together farmers and consumers, insists that it is possible and imperative to produce our food on a human scale, to consume locally, to honor biodiversity and methods respectful of mother nature.
