Bullfrog Films, Inc., PO Box 149, Oley, Pennsylvania 19547, 800-543-3764, www.bullfrogfilms.com This documentary explores some little known aspects of global trade agreements like the WTO. Patents and other intellectual property rights are expanding what corporations can own and control -- from things like machines, to knowledge and even living creatures. What does this mean for the environment, our food supply, and human rights? This film looks at farmers, indigenous people, and anti-globalization activists who oppose patents on life and advocate for a world where life is not a commodity but something to be treasured.
