nonreflective consumer society?

watched an austrian film about food at the cinema today. actually, it was a documentary (my 2nd documentary about food after "super size me") called "our daily bread" without comments. it showed an appalling picture of our modern food production and consumer society: monotonous assembly belt production, penned up chickens and beef... sorry, cows which were maltreated with cartidge hammers - everything in a very sterile environment. on the other hand, they showed the mass production of fruits and vegetables with lots of fertilizers. it wasn't scandalising but still a film to think about your eating habits.

the film was supported by (among others)

slow food

“Devastating! A must-see!" The New York Times

schon "unser täglich brot" im kino gesehen (kommt nur in ausgewählten kinos)? mein zweiter dokumentarfilm nach "super size me" hat mich zwar nicht zum vegetarier gemacht, aber doch zum nachdenken über unsere alltäglichen essgewohnheiten angeregt.
