GEKAUFTE WAHRHEIT - GENTECHNIK IM MAGNETFELD DES GELDES
Germany 2010 – Director: Bertram Verhaag – Original language: German – Length: 88 min.
Árpád Pusztai and Ignacio Chapela are distinguished scientists, but their careers lie in ruins. Both chose to investigate the phenomenon of genetic engineering. Both are now suffering the fate of those who criticise the powerful vested interests that dominate big business and scientific research. Statements made by scientists themselves suggest that 95% of those researching in the area of genetic engineering are funded to do so by industry. Only 5% are independent. Can we, the public, still trust our scientists?
