FYI: Free Event @ UNCW

For all of you who are interested in the politics, processing and distribution - and well, eating, of food, UNCW is presenting a free film: The Future of Food tomorrow night at 7:00 PM in the Lumina Theater.

Heck, if you just want something to do that's free, that's good enough reason to go as well.

Here's the info from the UNCW website:

The Future of Food

From the prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada to the fields of Oaxaca, Mexico, this film gives a voice to farmers whose lives and livelihoods have been negatively impacted by this new technology. The health implications, government policies and push towards globalization are all part of the reason why many people are alarmed by the introduction of genetically altered crops into our food supply.

Directed by Deborah Koons. 88 mins.
A discussion will follow the film.
Lumina Theater is in the Fisher Student Center.
Brought to you by UNCW Presents.
