Join the Eco Womb family and friends for a night of community and sharing with this amazing film that takes a look at GMO's from a family's perspective. This is a family friendly film and event. We encourage all people to come and enjoy the film and learn more about GMOs.
Doors open at 5:30. Film starts at 6:00. Questions and Answers following the film.
Film description: GMO OMG director and concerned father Jeremy Seifert is in search of answers. How do GMOs affect our children, the health of our planet, and our freedom of choice? And perhaps the ultimate question, which Seifert tests himself: is it even possible to reject the food system currently in place, or have we lost something we can’t gain back? These and other questions take Seifert on a journey from his family’s table to Haiti, Paris, Norway, and the lobby of agra-giant Monsanto, from which he is unceremoniously ejected. Along the way we gain insight into a question that is of growing concern to citizens the world over: what's on your plate?
