After watching the entire documentary “Fresh”, I can say that I was left with a lot of remorse and a
little anxiety when I realized about food industry and how our food is managed.
It’s the kind of anxiety that lingers after you look behind a cover and find something shocking,
unexpected. I just can not forget a certain moments from the documentary, as an example the way they
are handling the animals in special the chickens. Fresh (Video-Trailer)
My opinion of the film is largely positive. It is a great organized
and thought-provoking documentary that avoids simplistic answers and instead encourages critical thinking.
That kind of documentaries like "Fresh" , makes the viewer always
put questions to themselves like the same way I did,
“what do I really have on my plate?”. That just opened my eyes to see how disconnected we've grown from our food,highlightis how fragile that distance can truly be. After watching the film,
I started to be much more precise about what I buy and to look
much more carefully at the label
of the food on the shelf but also the quality labels of it.
“Fresh” is a film that shows the crisis of the industrial food system and offers solutions by promoting
sustainable agriculture.One think that I appreciate about the movie , was the audience that is wider that
you could expect, because I don’t think there is anyone in this world who doesn’t eat.
However, it probably strikes a chord most powerfully with people who are already skeptical of traditional
agriculture or who are just willing to consider an alternative viewpoint about the food industry.
Another thing that touched me deeply from the movie, was the story of Will Allen, a former
professional basketball player who is now an urban farmer. highlighting the unexpected paths
individuals can take when driven by a powerful effort and vision for change and a deep connection to
their community is remarkable.
The tone of the film can be described as passive-aggressive.The filmmakers do not shy away from the
less good aspects, such as the economic and environmental consequences of industrialized agriculture,
but they counterbalance it with inspiring stories about farmers and entrepreneurs who are creating
sustainable paths.
In essence, documentaries like "Fresh" act as a mirror, reflecting the often-unseen realities of our world
back to us in a way that is both informative and emotionally resonant.The lack of awareness can lead to
unintended consequences for our health, our environment,but also our society.
Food is fundamental, It nourishes us, connects us, and shapes our world. I think everyone should
watch this Documentary at least once, so we can all have a knowledge about our food.
