Food, Inc. 2 (2024)
Reunite with investigative authors Michael Pollan (The Omnivore’s Dilemma) and Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation) in a timely and urgent follow-up sequel to the groundbreaking Oscar®-nominated documentary FOOD, INC., and take a fresh look at our vulnerable food system. FOOD, INC. ignited a cultural conversation about the multinational corporations controlling our food system at enormous cost to our planet, workforce, and health. FOOD, INC. 2 comes "back for seconds" to reveal how corporate consolidation has gone unchecked by our government, leaving us with a highly efficient yet shockingly vulnerable food system dedicated only towards increasing profits. The film seeks solutions by innovative farmers, food producers, workers’ rights activists, and prominent legislators to create a more sustainable future.
