    Bananas! At Any Cost?

    Dogwoof Digital

    Documentary charting the legal action by a group of Nicaraguan banana plantation workers against their American corporate employers. Director Fredrik Gertten follows personal injury lawyer Juan 'Accidentes' Dominguez's attempts to bring a case against Dole Food by 12 of their banana pickers who claim to have been made sterile by the company's alleged use of the banned pesticide DBCP. As the case reaches the courtroom, the background to the increasingly contentious suit reveals the lengths the global food industry will go to to achieve profitability at any cost.
