Doc explores food science behind ‘cutivated meat’
London-based MetFilm Sales has picked up world sales excluding Canada to Hot Docs entry Meat The Future and will introduce to buyers at the virtual Cannes market later this month.
Liz Marshall directed Meat The Future, which explores ‘cultivated meat’, a food science that grows real meat from animal cells, free from disease and infection and without the need to breed, raise and slaughter animals.
The film follows cardiologist Uma Valeti, the co-founder and CEO of ‘cultivated meat’ start-up Memphis Meats, as he builds his company and production prices drop from 2016, when a meatball cost $18,000 per pound.
