The Mother Grain (2014)
Enlightening and insightful look at the lives of those who grow our quinoa
5 April 2015 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
This documentary succeeds where so many mainstream media outlets have failed. While reputable organizations continue to perpetuate the same lies and falsehoods about farmers and Bolivians, The Mother Grain actually went on location to the quinoa growing region of the Andes to discuss many of the surrounding issues regarding the rise of quinoa.
This documentary engages directly with the farmers to gain their perspective detailing everything from their farming practices, cultural and religious beliefs, to their living conditions.
Well researched, beautifully shot and well executed. A must see movie for people who care about knowing where their food comes from. Highly recommended.
