Children Of The Vine is a deeply unsettling investigation into the controversial herbicide Roundup and its impact on public health. Why are countries banning Roundup while the United States uses more of it than any other country in the world? From America’s heartland in Lone Jack, Missouri to Bakersfield, California, award winning filmmaker Brian Lilla speaks with both farmers who depend on Roundup and those who are paying the ultimate price for spraying it.
In the end, Children Of The Vine highlights more sustainable farming practices that heal soil health, empower communities to shift away from toxic farming and advocate for organic land care practices. A discussion with director Brian Lilla and guests will follow the screening.
