Every 30 minutes a farmer in India kills himself because he can no longer provide for his family. This documentary takes us to a village at the center of this crisis to explore how biotechnology is changing the way farming is done and driving small-scale farmers off the land.
Green Tuesdays & Thursdays events offer opportunities for lively discussion and community engagement around sustainability topics. Events are free and open to the public. Free popcorn at Fitchburg's Green Thursdays.
