Resources: SEED: The Untold Story

Few things on Earth are as miraculous and vital as seeds. Worshipped and treasured since the dawn of humankind. SEED: The Untold Story follows passionate seed keepers protecting our 12,000 year-old food legacy. In the last century, 94% of our seed varieties have disappeared. As biotech chemical companies control the majority of our seeds, farmers, scientists, lawyers, and indigenous seed keepers fight a David and Goliath battle to defend the future of our food. In a harrowing and heartening story, these reluctant heroes rekindle a lost connection to our most treasured resource and revive a culture connected to seeds. SEED features Vandana Shiva, Dr. Jane Goodall, Andrew Kimbrell, Winona Laduke and Raj Patel.

SEED: The Untold Story is a feature documentary by Taggart Siegel and Jon Betz. It addresses the global loss of seed diversity and explores a range of issues linked to environmental studies, sustainable agriculture, biodiversity, law, corporate consolidation, and human and indigenous rights.

The film was produced by Collective Eye Films.
