Eating the Future is celebrating its US premiere on February 22, 2025 at the Colorado Environmental Film Festival in Golden, CO. 

Directed and Produced by Katy Jenkyns, "Eating the Future" follows the narrator – voiced by Bafta-winning Mia McKenna-Bruce – a composite investigator drawn from countless combined experiences of those who work undercover to expose the realities behind factory farms. Terrified of a climate collapse, she embarks on a journey into the food systems that shape our planet. Looking for a glimmer of hope in the darkness, she listens to farmers, doctors, scientists, animal and food activists, and slaughterhouse workers, discovering what it will take to improve the lives of all beings trapped and harmed in this vicious cycle. 

Together we can change the broken food system. Ecological farmers working to high animal welfare standards and exploring alternative ways of farming show it can be done. Now, politicians and food companies must take responsibility, and drive the transition to a better future. For the animals. For the planet. For generations to come.
