Das System Milch

There's one thing milk stands for — health. It's seen as natural and nutrient-rich. But is it really that healthy? We set out to take a critical look at the milk system. Along the way we'll meet farmers, dairy owners, politicians, lobbyists, NGOs, scientists. Each has their own views on the value and consequences of an industry with worldwide impact. Whether in Europe, Asia or Africa, milk is the allegorical model of streamlined-for-growth global food production. The film uncovers surprising truths behind the system. Who profits at whose cost? Does the system have a future and are there alternatives?
