Lily Films is now streaming The Future of Food, the groundbreaking documentary by filmmaker Deborah Koons Garcia on the industrial food system, genetic engineering, the patenting of life and farmers’ rights, for free with no commercials on their website.

The Future of Food has been a key tool in the US and international anti-GMO grassroots activist movements. The film premiered at Film Forum in New York City in 2004 and has played all over the world in theaters, at film, food and farming festivals, and community gatherings, including a screening in Minneapolis with Ronnie Cummins, Mark Ritchie and Deborah Garcia on the panel. The film is acknowledged for its role in educating voters and the subsequent success of passing Measure H in Mendocino County, California, the first local initiative in the country to ban the planting of GMO crops. There are now hundreds of GMO-free zones.

The Future of Food continues to be shown throughout the world, allowing millions of people to understand the complexities of the many troubling issues intrinsic in chemical, industrial agricultural, as practiced by Monsanto and other corporations. Questions about agricultural genetic engineering persist and The Future of Food addresses these in depth. As the global battle over this technology continues, The Future of Food serves as a key educational tool for individuals and communities who call for increased attention and resistance to this corporate takeover of our fields and food system. The film presents positive solutions that have become part of the lives of millions of people: local food, farmers’ markets, CSA’s and a commitment to organic.
