This eye-opening food documentary follows filmmaker Kip Pastor on a personal journey to answer the questions: What exactly is organic food? Is it really better, or just a marketing scam? Digging deep with farmers, organic certifiers, scientists and critics, Kip learns that what began as a grassroots movement of small-scale farmers has turned into a $30 billion industry. The film reveals that in spite of the corporatization of organic, the original grassroots philosophy is making a comeback in many innovative forms. www.InOrganicWeTrust.com
