Bananas! by Swedish director Fredrik Gertten was a highly compelling and eye-opening look at the controversial use of pesticides by Dole Food Company and Dow Chemical in Latin America over the last 40 years.

It was actually a very balanced look at the “little guy” trying to take on big business in a US justice system built on loopholes and technicalities. It portrays the flaws in the plaintiffs’ (the Latin American banana workers) arguments and it highlights the manipulation and the exploitation of the justice system in the defendants’ arguments.

Needless to say, I will never eat another banana again. A must-see.
