We Feed the World is a 2005 documentary film in which Austrian filmmaker Erwin Wagenhofer traces the origins of the food people eat and views modern industrial food production and factory farming in a critical light. His journey takes him to France, Spain, Romania, Switzerland, Brazil, and back to Austria. The film features interviews with several people, including one with sociologist and politician Jean Ziegler.
Reception
[edit]A review for Variety by Joe Leydon refers to the documentary as "sincere but monotonous", noting issues with pacing and being "only sporadically effective at generating a genuine sense of outrage".[1]
