Land Awakening
Raúl Álvarez, 2011 Canada, 89 min
Inspired by his son’s voyage to learn about organic farming in Spain, Mexican-Canadian filmmaker Raúl Álvarez embarks on his own quest finding how chemical agriculture creates deserts, and wild nature provides far more nutritious foods when we stop controlling it. The odyssey expands around the Mediterranean and Canada, warmly portraying compelling characters living sustainably.
