This global thriller from the director of Blackfish reveals one of the world's biggest and least discussed threats.
Quietly and seemingly out of sight, governments, private investors and mercenaries are working to seize food and water resources at the expense of entire populations. Our future World Powers will be those who control not oil, but food, and the grab for land, water and means of production is already under way.
As The Grab investigates, it all begins to bubble to the surface in real time. Global food prices have hit an all-time high, threatening chaos and violence. Meanwhile, Russia is using food as a weapon against the Ukrainians, and as a geopolitical tool to wield global power.
Director Gabriela Cowperthwaite combines hard-hitting journalism from The Center for Investigative Reporting with her compelling character-driven storytelling, taking us around the globe from Arizona to Zambia in this revelatory expose.
