Grains from Plevla: Hollywood Cynonian Overview. Watch the new Russian documentary about GMOs "Grain and Plealls Review of the film Grain and Pleallies

Against the background of the growing popularity of the theme of genetically modified organisms around the world, and in particular in Russia, as well as because of the imposed sanctions by the European Union, the United States and a number of countries by the director Konstantin Semyin and Nikolai Dyakov was filmed a film about GMO. The authors of the documentary attempted to understand the history of the creation of transgenic crops and for the reasons why there was so contradictory confrontation between the supporters of these organisms and their opponents.

The film begins with conversations with Vietnamese residents who experienced the horrors of war and its consequences. We'll see different people, both adults and children whose visible defects are visible on their organisms and all of these consequences of using the American army of the notorious mixture of defoliant and herbicides production of Monsanta "Agent Orange". This toxic chemical was used to fall out of foliage in the jungle and it was easy to see the helicopters to see WitKongovkov, after which it was possible to kill them as efficiently as possible - the main purpose of using the Monsanthth mixture.

We believe that the history of the appearance of herbicides, as well as companies that have become their processes, now these companies are trying not to remember the sad experience. It was the most company that delivered the mixture of chemicals that killed and continues to kill Vietnamese. Later, the company was engaged in the development of genetically modified organisms and on this moment It is considered the most influential in this sector.

You will also hear famous research scientists negative consequences GMO on living organisms like a French scientist Seraliniwho published the results of his 2-year exploration of GMO on rats; Stephanie Sefffwho published a number of scientific articles about GMOs, opponents of GMO as an Indian public figure Vandan Shina. There are statements and the opposite side, which advocate the introduction of genetic engineering in modern agriculture, as Arkady Zlochevsky, President of the Russian Grain Union; Konstantin Scriabin, Director of the Center "Bioengineereria" Russian Academy science

The film also assigned a place for the current situation in Ukraine, which has developed in the food market. Today's Ukrainian authorities opened the gate for the cultivation and production of transgenic crops, which used to be prohibited. This will take advantage of transnational companies, because in Ukraine there is a very good land.

None without the United States, who became the main cradle of genetically modified organisms, it is in this country that the largest number is grown. But, despite this, the GMO product was not introduced in the country, currently in some states continue campaigns that are aimed at oblige manufacturers of products in which GMO marked their products.

We will see the different attitude of the governments and the population to the GMO in countries such as Vietnam, the United States, India (GMO Cotton is grown in the country), Hungary (it is forbidden to grow and implement transgenic cultures), Pakistan (in the country it is allowed to grow transgenic cotton in the country). And of course, it will be focused on Russian achievements in the field of genetic engineering, Russian scientists really have something to boast, both in the achievements of traditional selection and in the field of Transgenesis.

You will also see the famous World Granary Storage - Svalbard seed repository, created with the support of several dozen countries. There are also interesting stories on the topic of Evgenika, for some reason, many associate her appearance from fascism in Germany, but her fascists adopted among Americans, who at that time were stiguously engaged in research in this area. But most of all terrify the words of one scientist: "We have too many people," it smacks new Holocaust, launch Eugene 2.0?

The documentary tells about poorly promotional, but extremely important processes that occur in the global food market. Fighters "For" and "against" genetically modified organisms in last years A more actively break a spear in disputes about the dangers and benefits of GMOs, but is it only about this? The transgenic product industry, as they found out the authors of the film, is an iceberg, at the top of which are the very disputes about "plastic apples" and "growing horns." But what happens outside the field of view of journalists and activists?

Why are some countries in transgenis thousands of hectares of land, while others are running from them like from fire? Why do GMO manufacturers can be counted on the fingers of one hand? What is their policies in food markets and why is it more and more reminds world monopoly? What is this corporation at all and what goals lie under their promises to feed the whole planet? Scientists and experts from all over the world will tell about all this - from India to the United States. They will explain why in their time the self-suite-sensitive - terminator-seeds were invented, why seed banks are protected by no worse than nuclear facilities and, as using transgenes under the control of individual corporations, whole states fall.
