Against the Grain
Directed by
A brief illustration of how the use of biotechnologies in agriculture has become the dangerous monopoly of very few multinationals, first of all Monsanto, leader in chemical industry. The image of activists symbolically uprooting some of Monsanto's genetically modified plants on Independence Day ideally closes the video.
