Synopsis
In the wake of the 2008 worldwide economic crisis, filmmaker Alexandros Ikonomidis watches his optimism and income fade away as he comes to the realization that he is unable to sustain himself anymore. Overwhelmed with worry about things he used to take for granted, like the shrinking size of his grocery list, he spends most of his time sitting in isolation to avoid spending any money at all. After extensive research, he is convinced that growing his own food, without the need of a financial income, is the key to a viable solution for the global depression that was detracting from the modern lifestyle—everything linked back to agricultural seeds. As seeds have become patented, genetically locked, and in the hands of very few private companies, Ikonomidis embarks on a journey to look for lost reproducible seeds and the know-how for growing his own food for free—a simple individualistic solution that soon proved to be a very complex global problem.
