In an engaging sequel to the 2008 Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winning documentary, Food, Inc., authors Michael Pollan and Eric Schlosser reunite with filmmakers Robert Kenner and Melissa Robledo to reevaluate the modern food industry.
Since the first film sixteen years ago, new issues have arisen in the food-producing industry caused by profit-driven corporations’ focus on ultra-processed foods.
Centering on workers’ rights, food sustainability, and innovative farming technologies, Food Inc. 2 takes a look at how the current systems backed by multinational corporations have tightened their stronghold on food production and, by extension, our futures.
