Land Grabbing

Land Grabbing
reż. Kurt Langbein/Austria, 2015/91 min

The world’s farmland is at risk. Demand for land has soared as investors look for places to grow food for export, grow crops for biofuels or simply buy up land for profit. The film gives an inside look into the world of investors in the international agro-business and how the politics of the European Union is involved. “Land Grabbing” doesn´t only happen in Asia and Africa, but also in Europe´s breadbasket Romania. “Land Grabbing” takes a closer look into Europe and also challenges investors and their practices.
