The Tracing Paper

Our Daily Bread is a film about the modern food industry that’s been described as “The 2001: A Space Odyssey of modern food production”, despite its direct depiction of the truth behind the food we eat.

Shot without any commentary, director Nikolaus Geyrhalter told the Guardian he simply wanted his audience to reflect on the complicated truth behind our food. Following screenings at select cinemas since its UK release in January, the film is due to be shown on More4 at 10pm on Tuesday 29th April. (And should be available to watch online over the following week - sadly, Our Daily Bread was never available from Channel 4 online.)
