“The Grab” documentary screening in Fort Worth delves into the dangers of food and water monopolies and their impact on geopolitics, part of the Movies That Matter series
Fort Worth, Texas – In a striking exploration of a future where global powers dominate essential resources, the City of Fort Worth’s Human Relations Commission presents “The Grab” as part of its influential Movies That Matter series. This thought-provoking film will be shown at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth on Thursday, April 3, at 7 p.m., offering a vivid glimpse into a world where control over food and water equates to power.
“The Grab,” a documentary released in 2022, runs for 104 minutes and is not rated. It delves into the alarming trend of governments, private investors, and even mercenaries quietly taking over the planet’s food and water supplies. This emerging control mirrors the past influence of oil cartels, suggesting a future in which food could become the new oil, a commodity central to global dominance.
As global food prices reach record highs, the film reveals the potentially catastrophic impact of this power shift, warning of widespread chaos and violence if unchecked. The scenario it paints is one where these resources, fundamental to human survival, are becoming instruments of power, manipulated by a select few.
Admission to the screening is free, but reservations are required and can be made online. This bi-monthly series not only showcases films but also sparks vital discussions about human and civil rights issues, following each screening with a panel discussion. Special guests often join these sessions, providing expert insights and encouraging audience engagement.
Movies That Matter continues to serve as a platform for enlightenment and conversation, with screenings scheduled throughout the year in February, April, June, August, October, and December. Each film chosen aims to shed light on pressing global issues, engaging the community in meaningful dialogue and reflection. “The Grab” is no exception, offering a window into a possible future that could very well shape the geopolitical landscape of tomorrow.
