The Business of Hunger
1984, English. Directed by Robert Richter.
One of the major causes of world hunger lies in the unequal distribution of the earth's resources. Many people go hungry while their governments continue to export vital foodstuffs, such as soy beans and groundnuts to the industrialised countries. This film describes this reality in Asia, Africa and Latin and North America suggesting a more just distribution of agricultural resources.
