Our existence on this planet is precarious. This film exposes globalisation and the mantra of infinite growth in a finite world for what it really is: an environmental and human disaster. But across India marginal farmers are fighting back. By reviving an arcane form of agriculture, they are saving their poisoned lands and exposing the bio-colonialism of multinational corporations. One Man, One Cow, One Plant tells their story through the teachings of an expert in biodynamic agriculture, Peter Proctor, who teaches organic and biodynamic methods in India. This film is a model for a post-industrial future. The result of the battle for control of agriculture in India may dictate the future of the planet.
