This Oscar nominated documentary film has already rocked the US food industry in 2008 and became one of the US’ highest grossing independent films of the year. Directed by Robby Kenner, featuring interviews with experts such as Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore’s Dilemma), along with forward thinking social entrepreneurs such as Stonyfield Farms’ Gary Hirschberg and Polyface Farms’ Joe Salatin, Food, Inc. reveals surprising — and often shocking truths — about what we eat, how it’s produced, who we have become as a nation and where we are going from here.
