It’s a heart-breaking cautionary tale for our times that is more a sociological tract than documentary, as it imaginatively shows how through unforeseen circumstances what has evolved is a nightmare for the poor natives that only benefits the rich and those consumers who can afford to have food as a delicacy. It’s essential viewing for those who care to know why globalization is not without its tremendous downside and that one should be wary of letting it go unchecked and in the hands of the amoral politicians (the film only hints but doesn’t explore the possible corruption of the African government in allowing this exploitation of labor and resources) and bottom-line only businessmen. The film is “right on” in its aim to raise the political awareness of the Westerner, who can still do something about the dangers of increasing globalization that turns people into modern day slaves.
