Description

[Machine Translation] A documentary about food that creates the future. Jeremy Seifert, a father and filmmaker who began thinking about food after having three children, became interested in genetically modified organisms (GMOs) partly because of his oldest son's love of seeds. In the U.S., the existence of GM foods is virtually unknown because there is no labeling requirement. Jeremy wonders about this and sets out on a journey with his family to solve the mystery of genetically modified foods. As Jeremy interviews people around the world, including the headquarters of Monsanto, which has a 90% share of the GM market, the huge refrigerated storage facility of the "seed bank" in Norway, and Professor Seralini of France, who has experimented with long-term feeding of GM foods, the reality of the food industry gradually comes to light, and Jeremy is left speechless. Jeremy is at a loss for words. This is a documentary about the truth about genetically modified foods, but it is also a story about a family's journey to find the answer to the question, "What kind of food do we choose as a family? What will Jeremy's family choose at the end of this journey?

Description in Japanese

パパ、遺伝子組み換えってなぁに? / 洋画

未来をつくる食べものドキュメンタリー。 3人の子どもを持ったことで"食"について考えるようになった一人の父親であり、映画監督であるジェレミー・セイファートは、種が大好きな長男の影響もあって「遺伝子組み換え生物=GMO」に興味を持つ。そもそも、アメリカでは表示義務すらないため、GM食品の存在自体がほぼ知られていないのが現状。ジェレミーは疑問に思い、家族と共に遺伝子組み換え食品の謎を解く旅にでる。遺伝子組み換え市場シェア90%のモンサント本社や、ノルウェーにある種を保管する"種子銀行"の巨大な冷凍貯蔵庫、GM食品の長期給餌の実験を行ったフランスのセラリーニ教授など、世界各国への取材を重ねるうちに、徐々に明るみになっていく食産業の実態にジェレミーは言葉を失う。本作は、遺伝子組み換え食品の真実を追うドキュメンタリーでありながら、『どんな食べものを、家族で選択していくのか』という答えをみつけるまでの、家族の成長物語だ。GMOをめぐる、オー・マイ・ゴッド(Oh! My God)なロード・ムービー。この旅の最後に、ジェレミーの家族は何を選択していくのだろうか。
