To complement the information we will hear at Saturday’s workshop, in this documentary, we follow environmental activist and nuclear physicist Vandana Shiva from her organic farm home at the foot of the Himalayas to the summit of the World Trade Organization in Mexico to a protest outside the European Patents Office in Munich to do battle with the proponents of globalization, multi-national corporations like Monsanto, and Coca-Cola. This is a film about globalization, eco-feminism, genetic engineering, bio-piracy, food, and water. Can genetically modified foods alleviate world hunger? can indigenous women's knowledge inform modern genetic engineering? This film highlights the major issues still being fought over in the war of globalization.
