This documentary combines scientific and political investigation to report on the massive use of neonicotinoids. Designed to kill insects by spreading to each cell of a plant, they end up killing all life approaching it. While scientific studies have proved the neonicotinoids have catastrophic consequences, the corporations that manufacture the chemicals, do their utmost to scramble the information and dodge regulation.
