The Gateway Bug (2017)

An informative journey following the dramatic rise and fall of edible insect start-ups in America. This award winning documentary explores cultural taboos in diet to uncover clues to fix our broken food system in the West. From nutrition and diet, to tackling food security in climate catastrophe, from the front line of commercial cricket farms in the rust belt, to bug eating festivals keeping Austin weird. Witness the inauguration of the first American Edible Insect Coalition in America, as lawmakers on Capitol Hill watch the water crisis in Flint threatening industrial ag and the feeding of America. Includes interviews with over 50 industry leaders from Bizarre Foods TV host and celebrity chef Andrew Zimmern, to Dr. Sonny Ramaswamy (USDA), and Shark Tank star Pat Crowley.
