All screenings are accompanied by a panel with local guests and, where possible, the director, Pablo D’Ambrosi.
Food For Profit is the first feature documentary that exposes the links between the meat industry, lobbying, and the corridors of power. A five-year investigation that denounced how Europe is transferring hundreds of billions of taxpayers’ money into the hands of intensive farms, which mistreat animals, pollute the environment, and pose a potential danger for future pandemics. Directors Giulia Innocenzi and Pablo D’Ambrosi, along with their team of investigators, take us on an enlightening but shocking journey across Europe, where they confront farmers, corporations, and politicians. Travelling across Europe, they infiltrate farms across Europe, exposing the truth behind the perceived excellence of European dairy and meat production whilst also infiltrating high level powers in Brussels and gaining shocking information.
