‘Food Inc. 2’: Sequel to Oscar-Nommed Documentary Looks at Bringing Workers’ Rights, Healthy Choices to Broken System
"Food, Inc. 2" is set for a special screening event from Magnolia Pictures on April 9 ahead of the digital release on April 12.
Robert Kenner and Melissa Robledo direct the film from Participant and River Road, which reunites the directors with authors Michael Pollan and Eric Schlosser to take a fresh look at how corporate consolidation has left the food system vulnerable. In a quest for solutions, the film looks at innovative farmers, food producers, workers’ rights activists and legislators including senators Cory Booker and Jon Tester, who are working to create a sustainable future.
