The Grain Divide is a cinematic journey into the most debated food issues of our day. The film began as an unbiased, journalistic pursuit of real answers to growing concerns with modern wheat and grains. Theories suggesting the elimination of what has been our most basic food for thousands of years triggered a passionate curiosity and mission. The film originally began as a 22 minute short with the working title “Rise of the Grains”. It turned into what would become a feature length, 3 year project across 10 of the United States.

We believed that in order to change the world, you must first study it. At first, we set out to simply understand. In a “silver bullet solution” world where perception is reality, getting below the surface and looking at past, present and future was critical. As the answers became clear, we were determined to create a film that not only exposed the real problems, but focused on real solutions. The project became more than a film. It evolved into a mission for the future of food culture, true sustainability & human health.
