Food, Inc. on PBS 8/9/2011

PBS is doing an encore showing of Food, Inc. on August 9, 2011. Since it is an encore, not all stations may carry it, so check your local listings. (PBS advises to check the 2 weeks prior to Aug. 16 in case a local station chooses another date.)

Food, Inc. will be accompanied by Notes on Milk, a short variation of the 2007 feature documentary Milk in the Land: Ballad of an American Drink. Ariana Gerstein and Monteith McCollum, whose Hybrid aired on POV in 2002, take a quirky and poetic look at some lesser-known aspects of America’s favorite drink: the industry’s spiritual underpinnings, politics and the struggle of independent farmers.
