À propos du film

Tourné sur une période de dix ans, MODIFÉ suit la lutte communautaire pour l’étiquetage des aliments génétiquement modifiés, exposant les relations étroites entre les gouvernements et l’industrie biotechnologique. Le film est ancré dans l’histoire émouvante de la relation entre la réalisatrice Aube Giroux, originaire de Nouvelle-Écosse, et sa mère – une jardinière prolifique, une conservatrice de semences et une activiste de l’alimentation qui luttait contre le cancer pendant la production du film.

Entremêlant le personnel et le politique, MODIFIÉ utilise des archives de vidéos personnelles et des vignettes ludiques de cuisine et d’agriculture tirées de l’émission de cuisine primée de PBS des Giroux, dans une célébration appétissante de la nourriture locale. Ce voyage d’investigation mère-fille démonte habilement le mythe selon lequel les organismes génétiquement modifiés (OGM) sont nécessaires pour nourrir le monde, et plaide en faveur d’un système alimentaire plus transparent et durable.
