A Seed of Freedom

Actor Jeremy Irons narrates this landmark film by The Gaia Foundation and the African Biodiversity Network, in collaboration with MELCA Ethiopia, Navdanya International and GRAIN. In it, we learn how our world has gone from a vast bedrock of diversity, created over thousands of years," to genetically modified seeds engineered to withstand pesticides refined with a few changes from explosives and nerve agents developed in past wars. 

In the words of the filmmakers: "The story of seed has become one of loss, control, dependence and debt. Its been written by those who want to make vast profit from our food system, no matter what the true cost. Its time to change the story."
