Celebrating “Seeds of Sovereignty” Success
Our documentary on Mexico's fight for food sovereignty is becoming a global conversation through the world's film festival circuit.
Seeds Of Sovereignty: The Documentary
Mexico is at a pivotal moment, fighting to protect its native seeds, land, and people from the threat of genetically modified crops and harmful agrochemicals. Seeds of Sovereignty is a film born out of urgency—a response to a struggle that is both deeply local and undeniably global.
“Seeds Of Sovereignty” The Upcoming Film
In Mexico, corn transcends its status as a mere crop, embodying the nation's cultural identity and millennia-old traditions, notably through the milpa farming system. "Seeds of Sovereignty" explores the extensive repercussions of employing GMO corn and glyphosate on human health, the environment, and farmer livelihoods.
