GMO OMG

now on Time Warner On Demand

GMO OMG director and concerned father Jeremy Seifert is in search of answers. How do GMOs affect our children, the health of our planet, and our freedom of choice? And perhaps the ultimate question, which Seifert tests himself: is it even possible to reject the food system currently in place, or have we lost something we can’t gain back? These and other questions take Seifert on a journey from his family’s table to Haiti, Paris, Norway, and the lobby of agra-giant Monsanto, from which he is unceremoniously ejected. Along the way we gain insight into a question that is of growing concern to citizens the world over: what's on your plate?

Interview:

If you are currently or have ever raised children, you know how challenging it is to get young people to eat good food and make smart dietary choices. But whether you shop at Whole Foods or Publix, Fresh Market or Kroger, it's not as easy as paying a little more for organics.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

GMO OMG debuted at the Berlin Film Festival and is beginning its theatrical release in New York City, Los Angeles and Seattle in September 2013. The film has attracted the support of several celebrities, including An Inconvenient Truth producer Laurie David--ex-wife of "Seinfeld" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm" creator Larry David, actors Glenn Howerton and Kaitlin Olsen of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," Kristin Bauer Van Straten of "True Blood, " and executive producer Elizabeth Kucinich, wife of former Democratic U.S. Congressman Dennis Kucinich. The film was also supported by a Kickstarter campaign.
