An investigation across the lakes of Scotland's west coast to examine the impact of the intensive salmon farming industry on the local ecosystem, through the voice of the unspoiled landscapes and small communities that inhabit its shores. The story of a rapidly growing food production industry that is threatening the very existence of life, ecosystems, and local communities.

The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, along with other international organizations, is leading efforts to increase aquaculture by encouraging countries around the world to invest in its development. However, local communities strongly oppose the expansion of fish farms due to resource depletion and water pollution concerns. From Italy to Greece, Spain to Senegal, and all the way to Patagonia in Chile, their journey to uncover the truth extends to the ends of the earth.

Industrialized food systems, increasing livestock production, deforestation, climate and biodiversity emergencies, health and food crises: "Everything is connected" according to this feature documentary about the loss of balance of our One and only Earth.

From the coasts of Southern Italy to the Congo River basin, by way of Ukraine and Argentina: a journey through space and time to discover how to answer one of the most important questions facing us in this era. How will we feed the Planet, with a growing population projected to reach nearly 10 billion people, and natural resources already under stress from human activity? Through food systems, diets, lobbies, and farming communities, the documentary follows a global journalistic investigation and confronts us with a choice we cannot escape. Can we continue to consume an excessive amount of resources, or must we recognize what has failed in the system built over recent decades and roll up our sleeves to change course?
