Foodborne pathogens kill around 3,000 people in the U.S. every year and hospitalize hundreds of thousands more. Romaine lettuce, cantaloupe, sprouts . . . all have been at the center of outbreaks which have become alarmingly frequent in recent years. Their solutions are simple, but protections are scattershot, with little bureaucratic will to enforce them. And yet, our politicians keep saying that “the U.S. food supply is the safest in the world. Poisoned: The Dirty Truth About Your Food is a documentary that holds the public and private influences behind these decisions to account, beginning with the Jack In the Box E. Coli outbreak of 1992-1993 and continuing to the present day. Director Stephanie Soechtig provides tips on what to avoid at the supermarket, demystifies the tangle of regulations that govern what we eat, and tells the stories of families who have lost loved ones to foodborne illness. This is a film that will make you think about what’s on your plate and how it got there in eye-opening new ways.

腔棘鱼又称“空棘鱼”,英文名(coelacanth),由于脊柱中空而得名。由于科学家在白垩纪之后的地层中找不到它的踪影,因此认为这个登陆英雄已经告别了世间,全部灭绝了。在1938年,接近圣诞佳节的某一天,在非洲南部的科摩罗群岛附近,南非的博物馆员玛罗丽·考特内-拉蒂莫在巡视渔民捕的鱼时发现的,而受到全世界的瞩目。此鱼被推测是在约3.5亿年前出现,6500万年前即已绝灭的总鳍类(有穗边鳍的同类)中的一种腔棘鱼。总鳍鱼类不但能呼吸空气,而且能使用鳍来当作脚走路,这是鱼类向两栖类进化的重要证据。在距今4亿年前的泥盆纪时代,腔棘鱼的祖先凭借强壮的鳍,爬上了陆地。经过一段时间的挣扎,其中的一支越来越适应陆地生活,成为真正的四足动物;而另一支在陆地上屡受挫折,又重新返回大海,并在海洋中寻找到一个安静的角落,与陆地彻底告别了。本片记录了海洋生物学家罗伦巴勒斯塔和团...
