In our October event, we will be screening the film “The Seeds of Vandana Shiva”, an inspiring story of an Indian activist taking on the might of modern corporate industrial agriculture, and GMO seed production.  More information describing Vandana Shiva is available on the movie’s website here:

“Hers is the remarkable and unlikely story of a girl who trekked from highland cabin to cabin alongside her father, tended a garden alongside her mother, and passionately pursued an education that freed her from the caste and gender constraints of traditional Indian society”

“Vandana Shiva brought her scientific expertise and Gandhian principles of non-violent resistance to the struggles of poor Indian villagers whose livelihoods were being crushed by corporate capitalism. She has become a formidable opponent to those corporations whose drive for privatization and profit are destroying the environment and changing the climate.”

The film will be shown at St Mary’s Church Ealing from 7.30pm. The film is less than 90 mins and there will be time for a short discussion and refreshments after. The evening is likely to wind up around 9.30pm.
